Depressed at the prospect of spending another Christmas alone, successful crime podcaster Morgan Scott travels to the Endless Mountains of Pennsylvania to research a historic murder. But in the tiny village of Birchardville, past crimes and present dangers collide, placing both Morgan and the local residents in very real peril. This Christmas, there'll be no silent night.


Not very christmassy, despite taking place at that time of year, but a fun suspense novel with some twists I hadn't seen coming. I liked Morgan, Pat and Levi and Reed definitely grew on me too :)

The end seemed slightly contrived, but never mind - it was still a fun read :)

Cassie Forrest has sworn she'll never let the world get the best of her again. She's chosen to believe everything will be all right.

But on a journey filled with heartbreak and madness and zombies, Cassie and her friends must struggle to stay alive - and it's hard to believe in a future when survival seems unlikely.


A really good conclusion to the series. I was afraid that it would end on too "open" a note, but fortunately that wasn't the case (though I really wouldn't mind an epilogue a few years later). I'd seen a certain relationship change coming from a mile away though - that really was too obvious.

But all in all, a really great series, although the first was by far the best.
