Rhiannon
Charlotte Mallory has it all - fame, fortune and the most important thing of all - the love of her precious son, Malachi. What Charlotte did for this ‘perfect life' will haunt her forever, and the ramifications, as bad as they are now, may prove to be earth-shattering.
This hooked me right from the jump and didn't stop until the explosive finale. Ashley crafts a grisly tale here of the lengths one woman will go to for the perfect life and perfect love, that morphs into horror of epic proportions. And despite the most heinous acts, Ashley skillfully keeps the characters sympathetic and real, even as you feel their ultimate doom approaching. And Ashley pulls no punches.
The plot's momentum was near perfect, the story's structure fashioned to draw you in, just so, with the unfolding mystery. The story, structure, characters and pacing seamlessly meld into an unforgettable horror novel with a mother's love at its core.
My thanks to the author, John Ashley, for an ARC of this novel.
