About this listen

An instant classic horror novel.

Harry and Sasha found their dream, a beautiful small ranch in an unspoilt valley nestling beneath the Teton Mountains in Wyoming.

It's perfect.

Except for the neighbours, an apparently cute old couple, who have some truly crazed ideas about a timeless spirit which asserts its power over the valley in different terrifying ways, with the coming of each different season.

The only thing for Harry and Sasha to do, obviously, is to forget about the weirdos and start building their new life in their new home.

As they look forward to the arrival of spring.

With a deeply sympathetic feeling for the ancient rhythms of the natural world and the stunning landscape of the Western United States, allied to a sharply perceptive sense of the psychology of memory and the effects of PTSD, Harrison and Matthew Query have written a novel that is at once a rivetingly simple narrative and darkly complex supernatural thriller.

I have read the other reviews and think they may reflect the readers' own biases, which made me wonder what I should write to avoid the same issue.
I enjoyed this book and would go so far as to say I looked forward to driving to work so I could continue the story. I liked the voice of Sasha. As for her character within the story, I really enjoyed the positivity she brought. She was also needed to counter Harry's PTSD and resulting aggression as a trained marine living back in civvy street. The voice of Harry was a little gruff to begin with, but I became used to it and thought he was good in the end. If I had one criticism, the book could have done some done with some editing, as it did become repetitive at times, especially in relation to the final chapters. I especially liked the characterisation of Dan and Lucy. So, in summary, I would recommend this book. It is different, and it kept me entertained to the end.

Enjoyed it overall
