Pain shoots through my head.
Fireworks. Explosions. All inside my brain.
The white world goes dark and I know what’s about to happen.
Zara White suspects a freaky guy is stalking her. She memorises phobias and chants them when she’s nervous. OK, she hasn’t exactly been herself since her stepfather died. But moving to a freezing Maine town to stay with her grandmother is supposed to be the perfect fix – so her mum says.
Except, this plan of sending Zara away to help her stay sane? Yeah, not working. Turns out the stalker is not a figment of Zara’s imagination. He’s still following her, leaving behind an eerie trail of gold dust. There’s something not right – not human – in this sleepy Maine town, and all the signs are pointing to Zara.
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
Although this will be popular with YA paranormal romance fans, I thought that this was a bland, derivative read with a dull and irritating main character and I simply couldn’t read the main idea of evil pixies with a straight face.
