I did not expect to love this as much as I do. Riff seems awesome and our protagonist has her trauma but she is clearly a brilliant ghost writer. I loved the setting, especially the resort and how it has decayed in only 12 years. It is amazing how quickly that can happen.
I love their weird interactions and I especially loved the night singers. OMG They are so perfectly creepy.
I also love the greek mythology connections.
That ending too! Beautiful!

Callie makes a living as a ghostwriter. Mostly of rock and roll musicians. Imagine her surprise when she lands a gig working for Riff Fall, a singer songwriter, that led one of her favorite bands back in the day.
Since his wife went missing years ago he's become a recluse and lives on Invisible Island and never ever leaves the property. Some people think Riff may have been involved with his wife's disappearance. He claims something more supernatural occurred and now he wants to finally set the record straight.
Callie has strict rules to follow if she is to live with and write for him.
Don’t go near the attic door.
Don’t go outside after midnight.
Don’t ever listen to them.
Callie doesn't really understand his paranoia but agrees to go along anyway. Will she live to regret this? You'll have to read this to find out.
Truth be told this book didn't really do it for me. I don't know if it's because I just finished a 5 star book before this one making this pale in comparison or, admittedly, where this storyline went is totally not my thing. I was expecting a haunted house type story but this is NOT that.
Going beyond the storyline the characters didn't really impress me either. I was left feeling pretty indifferent to both Callie and Riff. By the 50% mark I was reading this just to be finished because I didn't really care about any of it.
I've read another book by London Clarke and really enjoyed it so I will try another book by her again. This one just wasn't for me. 2 stars!
