Anathema

Written by Nick Roberts

Narrated by Joe Hempel

Bryan and Ellie Stockton hope they left behind their demons when they move to their idyllic new home in southern West Virginia. Above all, they want a fresh start for their young son, Derrick, who witnessed the tumultuous first years of their marriage-years that were rife with substance abuse, rage, and resentment. Their bright hope for the future is darkened when a child disappears from their neighborhood. The couple becomes suspicious of a reclusive resident with a degenerative brain disorder. Strange events begin to happen in their house just as Derrick tells them about a new friend who visits him at night. Their son may be acting out from the trauma he endured, or he could be the obsession of something much more sinister.

I don't even know where to begin. This was my first Nick Roberts book and honestly, he knocked it out of the park. I was horrified and equally disgusted, but also shed a tear or two because it was heartbreaking at times. Definitely will read his other works!

The author’s writing is excellent. Amazing characters. Terrifying. I loved it! Make sure to read in the day time.
