Review: Crow's Cottage

Crow's Cottage Crow's Cottage by John Bowen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

CROW'S COTTAGE is the newest novel from author John Bowen, and is a stand-alone sequel to WHERE THE DEAD WALK. So you don't have to read WHERE THE DEAD WALK to enjoy CROW'S COTTAGE, but if you haven't read it, don't miss it! It's terrifying! I found the consequences of the story line in CROW'S COTTAGE more sad than terrifying (although there are plenty of terrifying moments!). This novel emphasises that we don't have to rely on the Spirit World to produce monsters: there are plenty of those among the human species, from simple vanity and cupidity and envy to outright greed to self-absorption to the point of committing murders. CROW'S COTTAGE introduces a new participant to the cast and crew of the television programme WHERE THE DEAD WALK: Chloe is a former You Tube content creator who loves to explore abandoned buildings, graveyards, and so forth, for Spirits. Now she is a co-resenter/investigator on WHERE THE DEAD WALK programme.

Mr. Bowen is champion at eliciting characters' emotions and personalities as well as at delivering those scare moments. Read and enjoy!
