The Shape of Night, by Tess Gerritsen

4.0

4.5 stars! I could not put this book down and read it in less than 24 hours. Brodie’s Watch reminded me of du Maurier’s The Frenchman’s Creek because of the theme of the mysterious captain. The story follows Ava as she deserts her past in Boston and comes to Brodie’s Watch to finish her cooking book. She is visited by the ghost of Captain Brodie, the first owner of the house and faces the consequences of her past actions. A Very atmospheric, gothic story about ghosts, metaphysics and murders...
