Shenna puts her blossoming acting career on hold to follow her real dream of studying art in England, where she falls victim to a stalker.
This is a mystery thriller rather than a horror novel. I have enjoyed a few of Taylor's horror novels so I went into this one expecting the same but I quickly realised it isn't. The story is quite slow paced although it does pick up towards the end. His writing style is really easy to get into, there was a good cast of characters, some interesting side storylines to go along with the main story, and some great suspense. I enjoyed the story overall and it was a surprise when the stalker's identity was finally revealed. Unfortunately this wasn't a particularly memorable novel so I would say if you're looking to read some of Taylor's work I would instead recommend Sweetheart, Sweetheart or The Moorstone Sickness.
