Summary:
Detective Michael Bennett and his family are about to be
haunted… by a father’s worst nightmare-the signs he should have seen and a
son’s desperate cry for help. Reeling from a family crisis, the Bennetts escape
New York for a much-needed vacation.
An idyllic country town in the Main Woods is haunted… by
an epidemic emptying its streets and preying on its youth. Turns out the
vacation brochures don’t tell the full story-the seemingly perfect community
has a deadly vice. When local cops uncover a grisly crime scene buried deep in
the woods, they consult the vacationing Bennett, who jumps at the chance to
atone for his own sins. But far from the city streets he knows so well, no one
will talk to the big-city detective, and the bodies keep piling up.
A young, hardscrabble, and forgotten girl is haunted… by
a traumatic history. Homeless and destitute, she represents the closest thing
Bennett has to a partner in his frantic hunt for the ghostlike perpetrator
behind the violence. Will Bennett and his unlikely ally unmask the culprit
before anyone else winds up haunted?
Review:
Haunted was a fast pace, page turner. I couldn’t put the
book down! There was enough mystery that allowed you to guess what would
happen, but not too much to make the book boring. Between the love story and
suspense of a killer, the story was amazing. I would highly recommend this book
to anyone.
