Last up from my Christmas stash is this little gem. I'm somewhat sad to be out of gothics, but all good things come to an end. And honestly, I need my TBR pile to get smaller. It's a goal of mine for this year.
Mrs. Moffat is approached at church one Sunday by a grown up Simon Warren. He's the young man who used to live next door, and he seems to be going through something. The older woman is feeling a little lonely, and she wants to help the young man. Unfortunately, the young man has more secrets than she expects.
This book was a little different than the usual gothic. It wasn't a brooding man in a tower, and it wasn't a romance needing a bit of help. It was a couple of souls that were lost. One ended up finding family, and the other didn't. I really liked the change, and I was happy to see this book is actually available in Kindle form.
If you're looking for the spooky, ghostly gothic book, this one isn't going to scratch that particular itch. If you're into something a little different, maybe something that approaches the genre more from a tense, what's really going on here? kind of mystery, this might be worth checking out. I enjoyed it for sure. Good Book!
