“I’m not a horror fiction reader but was completely won over by Blackwell’s intelligent and creative storyline. This novel reads more like a mystery…but with creepy, horror elements (The Headless Horseman!) persuasively woven in. The characters and the storyline will continue living in your brain long after you finish the novel. I hope Blackwell writes a sequel…and does it soon!” ~ Linus, Amazon Reviews
