Praise for the Author's Previous Books:
"Takes [the] standard genre template and turns it upside-down...the crazy whirlwind that ensues is enough to make even the biggest horror fan a bit dizzy...unique...with a literary approach that combines modern and mid-twentieth century techniques." - Inquisitr, The Best Horror Books of 2018
"Taylor weaves a haunting tale of a man who can't be sure if the desolate cabin he's staying in is full of ghosts or if his mind is playing tricks on him." - Popsugar, The 13 Most Chilling Horror Books of 2018
"I thought this would be a simple ghost story like Paranormal Activity. It wasn't. Filled with so much grief and craziness that I might need therapy." - BoredPanda, 7 Books That Scared Me Half to Death
"Unique... the author depicts the grieving process amazingly well. The story is claustrophobic... and what an ending. All of the flashbacks and delusions suddenly make sense... [it's a] sucker punch." - HorrorTalk.com
"A spectacular read...absolutely gripping. I couldn't force myself to put it down. Taylor did an excellent and meticulous job creating this story, forming imagery...invoking real emotion on the part of the reader." - The Horror Report
"A breath of fresh air...instilling such a deep, feral fear of the unknown that Shirley Jackson would be proud. Taylor doesn't pull any punches, and she refuses to play it safe, something that the horror genre could use a lot more of." -Justin Hamelin, Rondo Hatton Award-Winning Horror Journalist and Author
