Add a CommentStunning debut! Hamill builds a true Lovecraftian nightmare world, but so much more. Spanning nearly fifty years, the intimate history of the Turner family unfolds through successive tragedies. This cursed family is inextricably linked to some macabre other world. The creepy atmosphere builds as we slowly learn the truth. The characters are rich and compelling, and Hamill expertly wraps it all up in the end. The beautiful, touching conclusion brought tears to my eyes. Looking forward to more from this author.
