Summary
From New York Times best-selling author Erik Larson comes his first venture into fiction, an otherworldly tale of intrigue and the impossible that marshals his trademark approach to nonfiction to create something new: a ghost story thoroughly grounded in history.
Pioneering psychologist William James leads an expedition to a remote isle in search of answers after a family inexplicably vanishes. Was the cause rooted in the physical world...or were there forces more paranormal and sinister at work? Available only on audio, because as Larson says, ghost stories are best told aloud.
A group of researchers sets sail for the Isle of Dorn in the North Atlantic in 1905 to explore the cause of several mysterious disappearances, most notably a family of four who vanished without a trace after a weeklong holiday on the island. Led by Professor James, a prominent member of the Society for Psychical Research, they begin to explore the island’s sole cottage and surrounding landscape in search of a logical explanation.
The idyllic setting belies an undercurrent of danger and treachery, with raging storms and unnerving discoveries adding to the sense of menace. As increasingly unexplainable events unfold, the now-stranded investigators are unsure whether they can trust their own eyes, their instincts, one another - or even themselves.
Erik Larson has written a terrifying tale of suspense, underpinned with actual people and events. Created specifically to entertain audio listeners, this eerie blend of the ghostly and the real will keep listeners captivated till the blood-chilling end.
Featuring Erik Larson reading his Notes for a Narrator.

Fabulous
This kept me right on the edge of my seat! The suspense and build-up was expertly done. Super narration. I enjoyed the description of early radio technology and felt it gave the story a ‘real’ historical setting.

Enjoyed
A good supernatural story. I thought it was going to be a typical gothic ghost story but I didn’t find it so, it was different in my opinion. The ending did leave me feeling a quite spooked but I don’t want to give any spoilers away!

Gothic Horror
This is great if you like slow, gothic-esque horror. There’s a lot of discussion about the possibility of a haunting and analysis of what’s going on, it certainly won’t be for everyone!

Mostly good
I enjoyed this on the whole, although there was a bit too much technical information about radio waves for me. The mention of possums was extremely jarring and there were a few other random Americanisms that shouldn’t have been in there. Narration was very good.

A most enjoyable audio book
The story starts out slowly, but builds up to a most satisfying conclusion. The main characters are likeable and I was sufficiently interested in the outcome to be carried along at a good pace. Rhind-Tutt reads the story convincingly without overdoing the accents. Larson has created a well thought-out ending that ties up any loose ends there might have been. I wish he'd written more fiction as I'm sure I would be delighted to read more from this talented authour.

Great writing and amazing narration.
Very well written and 1st class narration.
Little hints and red herrings peppered about what might (or might not) be going on.
Steady build up of dread, not slow at all in my opinion - similar pacing to writers around the time (such as Machen, Blackwood etc) but with more modern prose.
Could very easily imagine this finding further success as a film/limited series adaptation.
