A year ago, a hit-and-run nearly killed Celeste Cleary. Instead, it left her with a chilling gift: the ability to see the dead. She uses her new power to unravel the mysteries behind the missing and murdered.

But now it's time for her to return home to West Virginia, where her own life began, and where her mother abandoned her family decades before.

Celeste is about to confront her darkest fears. And some of them might lead her right to the truth about her own past—a truth buried deep, waiting to be unearthed.

Dread the Night, by JR Erickson, is a chilling tale that will leave you with a haunted feeling well after you finish reading it. As part of the Dear Celeste collection, I assure you this is the best book I've read from that amazing set. Celeste sets out for her childhood home in West Virginia, not really sure what she is looking for. Before she is done, she has far more answers than she ever expected. In some cases, more questions and answers than she ever wanted.

As per this author's style, the storyline is fast-paced and well-written, filled with questions about her past, unexpected answers, ghosts, betrayal, subterfuge, determination and grit. There's so much more that you just need to read to experience it. The characters are all well-developed and engaging. Celeste is so real to me at this point, that I feel as if I'm riding in her truck along side her, ready for the next leg of her adventure.

Overall, Dread the Night is well worth reading. I highly recommend it and anything else from JR Erickson!
