Interesting gothic-style horror, although not as effective as one would have hoped. ( ) Lovers of mysteries as well as haunting settings will definitely enjoy this novella. It has an old world feel and its creepy atmosphere is setup immediately with the opening. It left me with the feeling that I should have been sitting wrapped up next to a fire while reading it. The slight inclusion of occassional Italian words didn't work for me, it left me wanting to look up translations, even if usually they seemed to be terms of endearment. She Walks in Darkness has some very unusual twists and turns and this kept me interested but ultimately, I don't think I was the best target audience because I couldn't attach to Barbara and I simply wasn't enthralled with the story. The ending was surprising and beautiful for the choices the characters made and I think tries to leave an impression with the reader. Cover - 3 stars - It isn't something I would probably pick up just based on seeing the cover! Story - 3.5 stars - Lots of atmosphere. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
A gorgeous Tuscan villa harboring a terrible secret houses this beautifully harrowing adventure of ancient mystery and modern intrigue. Archaeologist Richard Keyes and his resourceful young bride, Barbara, are expecting a blissful honeymoon in a welcoming new country. But from the moment they arrive in their secluded new home, circumstances conspire against them. The key to an ages-old mystery lies in the catacombs under the villa, in a familial conflict reawakened after generations of sacrifice, betrayal, and madness. This first publication of a newly discovered jewel from a World Fantasy Lifetime Achievement Award winner is sure to please readers of all genres. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
