Review:I was immediately drawn into this story. I remember living alone and sometimes jumping at the most innocuous of sounds...because who knows what could be lurking outside. For Hilary, it doesn't just lurk...it attacks, and when killed, it still comes back to attack again. She not only has to fight for her life, but for the respect of the police who cannot buy into a story that involves rising from the dead. It is only when the evidence irrefutably shows that something out of this world is happening that Hilary gains the support she needs to fight the demons of her past while clearing the path for the future. Great read!
