The cover and synopsis of this book really had me excited about this book. Who doesn't want a good spooky book as the days get shorter and we near Halloween? Plus, I had to wait a few months in the library hold queue to get it.

Almost from the first page, I was disappointed and ended up skimming after page 100, hoping for improvement. The characters didn't stay true to themselves (and not in a realistic way).

I won't repeat the plot, but suffice it to say that this could have been a great ghost story that was a really bizarre combination of psychosis/black magic/coke binge.
