This short story started off quick and kept up the pace all the way to the end. An elderly couple, Frederick and Joan are wanting to live out their retirement peacefully in a house that they just bought.

Frederick likes to go walking out in the woods that surrounds the house, but everything changes when he finds a stranger laying on the ground. The man is wounded and is in bad shape, so Frederick takes him back to the house.

From that point on, the terror begins as trying to be good Samaritans, they end up allowing a stranger into their midst that is anything but what he seems.

The author, Michael Bray, takes the reader down a gory journey into the unknown. Moral of the story is: Be careful who you let into your house and beware of strangers. Four stars for this one.

Fast paced and twisted short story!

I really liked this short story. The story revolves around a man that is sitting in seat 6A on an airplane. There is something odd and creepy about him which makes the flight crew worry that something is going to happen to the plane.

Though the story was really short, it was really good as it captured my attention for the first page to the last page and I read it in one sitting! Four stars for this one.

Whispers on the wind..whispers in the woods..something is stirring..something is coming!

The Samson's (Steve and Melody) decided to move out to the country to get away from the city life. Melody falls in love with the cottage (Hope House) and sees lots of potential for her and her husband to fix it up. Steve is a little unsure of the cottage as he just has a weary feeling in his stomach that something is just not right. Steve is also unsure of the realtor, Donovan, as the realtor is really pushing for the sale of the cottage.

Once the couple gets settled then things start happening not only within the cottage, but outside in the woods and near the stream that runs next to the cottage. The couple starts enduring strange dreams and sleep walking. Steve starts hearing whispers from the woods and wants to investigate the woods that lies behind the cottage. Melody starts noticing the change in Steve and she starts having her own problems with strange occurrences on the property. Melody decides to investigate the woods too and she finds an artifact that she removes from the woods as she wants clarification on what it is and why it is there.

Some of the townspeople are against them living in the house to the point where everyone doesn't want to talk about the house except for one old woman that seems to know quite a bit of history with the house. When the Samson's seek her out she has quite a story to tell and Steve and Melody do not want to believe what the woman says, but they cannot deny that something is going on in the house as things start escalating to the point where when they leave the house to go to town they do not want to go home.

As more things start happening, the couple decide to enlist the help of some of the townsfolk with possible history of the property and cottage. What does the couple learn from the towns people? What is the artifact that Melody found? What does the whispers mean? What has invaded their property and cottage? If you want these questions answered, then you will just have to read the book.

The story is fast paced with a creepy atmospheric feel and though it was not scary, it had a few heebie-jeebie moments in the book!

This book is part of a trilogy, so I am looking forward to reading the second book in the series "Echoes". Giving this book five stars.

Great book

A well written, unsettling story. My first time reading Michael Bray and it won't be the last.
This was easy to read, flowed beautifully and had a well crafted relationship between the two main characters that ensured that I was invested in what happened to them.
Some truly unsettling moments here that had me hooked.
I know a good book when I find myself reading it in the loo!
Look forward to reading the next in the series.
