Daniel Martin has never forgotten his childhood encounters with Frank Watkins, the man who built his family a summer home out of cardboard and plywood. Frank's gaze was oddly confusing, as if he was attempting to discern the proper way to behave because he didn't know how to respond in a human manner. Since Frank obviously wasn't an alien, young Daniel thought maybe the man was crazy. In the end, Daniel would learn the terrifying truth about Frank Watkins. And as an adult, Daniel is about to discover there are more of them out there.

**Trigger Warning**

The first part actually grabbed my attention, the pacing was great, and I was almost on the edge of my seat in anticipation for the big reveal/show down.

Then came part 2.

I haven't finished because I found myself constantly questioning why these chapters were necessary. Rape and pedophilia don't make a story scarier, just uncomfortable.

Intriguing to Mundane

A good overall story. Not his best but still very good. Glad to recommend book.

I'm an avid horror fan, and this is really, really creepy. It's not often a book keeps me up at night, but this one definitely did! A fantastistic writer, Little really got me immersed into the world of this book, and the narrator was great.

The only disappointment for me was the end, but this could just be personal preference. The ending gets very overly supernatural (monsters and loads of ghosts) and unfortunately for me that was when it stopped being scary, as the mystery was really lost.

Really creepy! A good read, but not the best end.

Holy moly this book was amazing. Very good read, entertaining from the start and kept me interested all the way to the end.

Freaking awesome!!

Story lacked something. Did not drag me in the his other books did. I'm having a hard time understanding why the reviews for this book are so high.

Struggled to finish.

I have always enjoyed the work of Bentley Little. The story here was just as great as anything else I have ever read by him. I love his ability to take the mundane and make such an entertaining tale.
While I thought the story was great, it took me a couple of chapters to get used to the narrator. He didn’t seem as into it as I would have liked, but after a couple chapters his enthusiasm was in full swing.
Overall I was impressed by this selection and would definitely recommend it to fans of the author.

Very good narrator. I was skeptical if I would enjoy this book but once I started listening I was hooked. The ending was a little lacking for me because I would have liked a little after the "big event" story but still a great listen!

Was skeptical but pleasantly suprised!

the story overall was great and I thoroughly enjoyed it but the narration had a few spots that didn't sound right but wasn't bad by any means.
