Burke Flats is situated in the picturesque
state of Vermont, but the town itself is anything but pretty with terrible secrets
lying just below the surface. Will Stiles and his men from S.P.I.R.I.T arrive
in town to look into the marshlands where something supernatural has been plaguing
the area for hundreds of years and they intend to get to the heart of it.
There are a growing number of
deaths around the marshes; the locals Anna and Blake are doing their own
investigation and soon they join forces to finally lay the matter to rest.
This book jumps straight into the
action and then never lets go. We are first shown what the marsh can do and
gives us a hint of what is out there and then we are introduced to Anna, a
local woman who can communicate with the dead. The military team S.P.I.R.I.T is
a paranormal group of soldiers who turn up to help. It soon develops into more
than that for Will and Anna and the scenes do get a little raunchy and did
catch me be surprise, up until then I assumed it was young adult. I also really
liked the inclusion of Zander from the previous book. Just one call home told
us where he was in his life and what had happened to Sam, it was a nice touch.
Dawn Gray knows how to build up the
tension, draws the reader in completely when it comes to wanting or rather
needing to know what lurks under the marsh. She slowly paints a very disturbing
picture of what the founding fathers did to increase the wealth of the town. It
is written at a great pace and has a nice flow that is well worth the read.
