Summary: A great thriller, kept me on the edge of my seat!
Review: I really loved Mr. Cecilione's style of writing. He has a way of capturing your attention from the first page. He combines the ordinary, everyday happenings with horror and ends up scaring the hell out of you! Please write more.

Summary: Makes you look at Grandpa a little differently....
Review: Successful New York journalist, Elaine Prescott, finally takes a much-needed vacation to visit her elderly aunt in Eden's Bluff. She's been through some traumatic events covering the activities and capture of a crazed serial killer in NYC, and she's hoping to recharge in the quaint town. She arrives to find that the local geriatrics are killing themselves. She then stumbles upon the history of the first citizens of the area; some of whom were chased out for their "unchristian" beliefs. But she never imagined what she would finally discover of the town's secrets.

This is my second Cecilione novel. He makes writing look easy! His words seem to flow, and he creates incredible word pictures. This novel is especially chilling not for gore or for crazed monsters, but because it constantly addresses our fears of losing our youth, our health, our looks, and of what happens once we die. Cecilione blends corpses, Egyptian mythology, fears of death and small-town suspicions to create a disturbing little novel. It's a quick read both because of it's short length as well as it's fast pace. If you haven't read Cecilione, grab some of his works now! I also highly recommend THIRST.
