The story is told by multiple points of view but I didn&#8217;t find this confusing as the book progresses at a brisk pace and doesn&#8217;t get bogged down. It also adds to the character of the book itself because it&#8217;s like looking at snapshots of small town New England. I would definitely recommend this to lovers of horror and suspense.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h4><a href=\"http:\/\/evergreen.noblenet.org\/eg\/opac\/record\/3214474?locg=1\">Check the catalog for the availability of this title<\/a><\/h4>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reviewed by Kim Quiet little Brewster Rhode Island is suddenly beset with strange happenings.
