Eight years after her husband Jarrod is killed in Iraq, Corrie Saunders returns to the 150-year-old
home in the Ozarks that he left to her. Not only has she come back to have the old house renovated,
she has come back to grieve his loss--to be in the one place she is sure his presence dwells. All she
wants to do is bury herself in the renovations until she begins to experience eerie occurences, and she's sure that it's Jarrod trying to reach her. Eli Murdock, Jarrod's cousin, is a strong Christian man, and he knows that the malevolent presence in the house is not Jarrod. Can his faith protect them? And furthermore, can he convince Corrie before things escalate and she comes to harm?
This was very good, it kept my focus until the very end. Very well written, and the characters are
believable. It kept me wanting to keep reading, as I liked the feel of this book, and how it made me feel. I grew to love the two main characters especially, as the author has a way of connecting you to them and pulling you in. There is however, things mentioned in the story of some magic, as some of the townspeople practice folk magic, and some of it is a part of the story. It is made very clear though, the difference between good and evil. A very good read, with a good storyline and suspense as well.
I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.
