The Hollows

Written by Mark Edwards

Narrated by Guy Mott

From the bestselling author of The House Guest comes a chilling story set deep in the woods…

With his marriage over and his career in freefall, journalist Tom decides to reconnect with his fourteen-year-old daughter, Frankie. Desperate to spend precious time together now that they live an ocean apart, he brings her to Hollow Falls, a cabin resort deep in the woods of Maine.

From the outset there’s something a little eerie about the place—strange whispers in the trees, windchimes echoing through the forest—but when Tom meets true-crime podcasters David and Connie, he receives a chilling warning. Hollow Falls has a gruesome history: twenty years ago this week, a double slaying shut down the resort. The crime was never solved, and now the woods are overrun with murder-obsessed tourists looking to mark the grim anniversary.

It’s clear that there’s something deeply disturbing going on at Hollow Falls. And as Tom’s dream trip turns into a nightmare, he and Frankie are faced with a choice: uncover the truth, or get out while they still can.

This was so much better than the other 2 books by this author that I TRIED to read.

When a teen aged girl has a summer vacation with her Dad that is visiting from England (her parents are divorced) she had no idea that what her Dad had made reservations for were at the Resort 'The Hollows' at the local lake. Now what makes this place special, is that she finds out that 20+ years before it was the site of a gruesome slasher type murder of two local teachers and the killer was never caught. The town's people and the teens all know about 'the killer' and 'Frankie' for Francesca, and her father soon realize what they are in for......Summer; Bloody Summer! All over again.

This was just a fun quick read that is not too scary, however there are some great murder sequences that I thought were fun. Loved the ending too. Recommended for anyone that does not want to have nightmares.....well maybe? lol.
