This was an interesting one. It definitely has a Hitchcockian feel. It’s well written and Fieto does a good job of getting you in Mrs March’s head as she devolves. I did see some of the twists coming but it was still an enjoyable read and kept me engaged the whole time.

I would watch the EVERLOVING daylights out of a TV or stage adaptation. As is, it just felt like the wrong medium for the story - predictable and a bit grating. But as a televised series or ‘Woman in Black’ stage show, I think it could be fantastic!
