Splendid. Terrifying. Addicting.
There is no other way to describe it.
I loved this book so much I couldn't stop reading,

I'm just clearing out old files and realized that I hadn't sent feedback for this book, although I read it back in 2017.

Tessa is the manager of a new luxury resort, equipped with all sorts of high tech security devices. The grand opening is imminent when Tessa and her staff discover a serial killer has targeted them.

I love this sort of closed circle mystery where people are isolated and being picked off by a murderer.

The format of this book is unique with camera feeds and narrative side by side.

I enjoyed it but it's quite violent so I'd definitely mention that before recommending it to library patrons.

I only found out after reading that the real book contains split pages with simultaneous events. My ARC was not formatted in this way, and it likely affected my understanding of the book.

Reminded me of a cult horror film! I really loved the alternating view points. Very campy and easy to read. Great summer reading!

I read this book several months ago. I was between blogs at the time, and never wrote the review, but I have never forgotten a single thing. This story is unique, in my experience. I’ve never read anything quite like it. It took me a few pages to get into the rapid scene changes, but once I did? It was engrossing. Gripping.

A “watcher” is narrating everything that happens. It’s pretty darn creepy. Sometimes we hear the “watched” and sometime we don’t, we only know where they are and what they’re doing. Some of what the “watcher” sees and tells us is brutal. Gory. Horrifying. Some of it is sexy. Some very sweet.

Ms. Wohlsdorf has made a fan girl of me. Her unique style had me mesmerized, and I stayed up way too late, finding out that reading a scary story…alone…in the dark…is no easier now than it was when I was a kid hiding from the monster in the closet or under the bed! Yikes!

If you think you’re brave enough for a scream a minute book, I dare you to pick up a copy now and…

Enjoy!
