The characters were interesting and diverse. The murderer was hard to identify. But something was missing to make it 4 stars. It didn't compel me to read more.

My third book by the author. His books are creepy, around 200 pgs usually, and easy to read. I also watched the movie with Kevin Bacon. 4⭐

LeahBergen That movie freaked me out! 😆 1mo
AnnCrystal 👏This movie was incredibly creepy and absolutely good, still one of our all time favorites 🤩👍.

Actually, I have this book but was afraid it might mess with my opinion about the movie...I should give it a try (maybe for Halloween).

3⭐. A collection of short stories in the backwoods of Appalachia. I'm unsure if I will read more of the author. After some stories I thought I might; after other stories I said I wouldn't.
