This kind of book just kind of creeps in, getting creepier so slowly that, like a frog being boiled, you don't really know something is going on until it is too late and you end up staying up way past your bedtime to finish it!
Margot is already a tragic figure, prone to scream curdling nightmares after being the only survivor in the car wreck that killed the rest of her family but is still quite a likeable character and you can't help but feel for her as she gets taken in as a ward by the Suttons, a rich family that have a huge house. But there are secrets and darkness (or is there?) and the reader is left wondering if something is going on, or is Margot losing it?
It is a really good book and would be a great read for Halloween, creepy and unsettling more than scary, but be sure to book off a section of your time because you will not want to put it down!
