I'm a third shifter with a night off, so I decided to delve into this book. Right from the start, there's an ominous feel to the book what with the closed casket funeral of both Margot's parents and subsequent inheritance of her family's winery. She was sent away as a young child to live with grandparents and still has bitter feelings and no memory of the house. The winery, built on the hill where the town would hang their criminals, has the infamous old hanging oak as their logo and the land is believed to be cursed. Left alone for her first night, she's nervous of the creaks and groans of an old house. And then the bells start to ring and you're just flat out terrified, not knowing what's going on... just like poor Margot! As more information was explained and the threats kept increasing, I found myself sneaking over to close my doors and windows left open to the summer night and jumping at the creaking in my own house! Just so deliciously scared! I can't believe I raced through this book in one night! This is only my second book by this author and I'm excited to see how many more she's written... bring on the terror, lol!
