Query: What a nice surprise !

This is a fascinating and intelligent story written with an elegant prose that is hard to beat. The characters, events and settings are all very convincing and well thought out. The main thing I enjoyed about this novel was it's superb ending, which I felt was so fresh and powerful, not the typical, happy and cliched ending that most readers demand. Kudos to Judith Hawkes for aiming for and hitting the bullseye with this great novel. I would highly recommend this book to all horror readers. Truly a satisfying and thought provoking novel.
