Rating:
Synopsis:
As a dark power gathers, Mary finds her life becomes interconnected with the disturbing events that transpired in 1847 to eleven year old Liza Blair. The more Mary is drawn into Liza’s story, the more she realises someone close to her is in grave danger from the sinister energy at Ravenswood.
Set in the backdrop of an unsettling forest, and with strange neighbour Emmaline Delacroix obsessed with death and séances, Possess will take you even deeper into the murky depths of Mary Hades’s unusual life.
Book two in the Mary Hades series.
Review
I was lucky enough to cross paths with the author Sarah Dalton in 2014. I read many of her books last year and without a doubt Sarah has become one of my favourite authors. I find Sarah's story telling mesmerising and get easily drawn into all her worlds she creates.
Possess is another fantastic addition to the Mary Hades series. This book takes us into the darker side of the paranormal world that Mary lives in. Sarah's writing as always, captured me almost immediately and had me hanging off every word.
I love how this book focuses on the relationship between Mary and her mother. Mary always had a stronger, closer bond with her father. Her mother always seemed to be either trying too hard or appeared to be on edge around Mary. And finally we find out why. It was like opening a present on christmas morning!
Lacey isn't as prominent in this book. I did miss her. I love Lacey and I love the relationship between both her and Mary. I do understand though that Lacey kind of taking a back seat was clearly needed in order for the story to play out the way it was meant to. However Sarah does not let us forget about Mary's concern about the future of their friendship and ensures this is addressed in the story also. I was a total bundle of nerves at that part of the story!
Thanks to Sarah's fantastic story telling ability, everything is woven together perfectly to create yet another fantastic read!
If you haven't read any of Sarah's books, you really need to get on it, like now. Trust me, you will not be disappointed!
