Thank you Nikki Rae for a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

The small wooden box is dirty, the size of a human fist, and sealed with wax. When Corbin takes it upon herself to clean it and break the seal, a voice she has tried to ignore gathers strength. Shadows play on the walls at night, and with a family history of mental illness, Corbin fears the worst. But the voice tells her it is real. That its name is Six and it will prove it in time.
Drawn to this mysterious entity, Corbin isn't sure what to believe and the line between reality and her imagination blurs more every day.
Some doors should not be opened; can this one be closed?

Pretty enjoyable paranormal fantasy, I think I'll try the second one!

I am not sure about this book. The main character Corbin Green is a twenty-two year old college student who lives with her mother. She is studying art and loves to draw and paint. Her mother suffers from mental health issues as did her mother before her. When Corbin's mother buys her a gift at a yardsale, strange things start to happen. It is a small wooden box that is dirty, tarnished and the lid is sealed with wax. At first Corbin forgets about it, but she has begun hearing voices calling to her at night. When Corbin comes across it later in the story, she decides to clean it up and break the seal to see what is inside it. This is when the story takes a very strange turn for me. The voice she has tried to ignore gathers strength. Is this some kind of demon from a horror movie or is she beginning to have mental health issues of her own. As the story progresses, Corbin changes drastically and then all of a sudden, the story just ends with the ubiquitous to be continued. I was not impressed at all. I will not be continuing with this story. It is billed as a science fiction book, but I am not too sure about that.
