Ok so this was marketed to me as horror. I wouldn't call it horror. Maybe thriller without the supermarket-mom aspect that most thriller books have. My nana wouldn't want to read this. 

I, however, am someone who can only sort of tolerate the supermarket-mom-paperbook vibe. I dip in occcasinally to keep up with super popular books because I have extreme fomo. 

This book is not that! If you want a little creepy (some paranormal, some murrrdaahhhh) then this will do it for ya. And the main character is a woman vicar, which is sick, and her name is Jack, so. I'm immediately in. And she was fairly likeable! This was fun. Read it.
