"This book goes beyond the horror genre and the typical ghost story. It digs deep into that monster: grief, the daily-ness of loss, and how our identity reshapes itself as we heal. Through her instantly likeable protagonist, Corso shows us how to make peace with one's past and give voice to those who've had theirs stolen. I was gripped by this story and turned pages late into the night, losing myself in this mystery as it unfolded in Maggie's lakeside cabin."
