Summary: LOVE THIS FRESH NEW VOICE!
Review: I got this book yesterday and couldn't put it down until I'd finished it this evening! Not only is this one incredible writer with a fresh voice and an entertaining story filled with atmosphere, but she's a she writing from a convincing male point of view. You don't see that too often. I kept flipping to the back of the book to see her picture to make sure it was a she. The story is about a man, Bobby Desmond, arriving at his rental property where he's staying for six months in order to write a book. His sister Candy comes with him, and the back story between him and his sister and their team efforts at romance writing is really interesting not to mention even erotic, exploring a taboo subject in a sweet and touching way. Bobby is soon attacked by a ghost and he is off on the adventure of his lifetime. I don't want to give things away because there's a twist or two or three, but he does comes up against an evil that is hard to resist and if he gives in it'll cost him everything, even his soul. The ending more than satisfies and this is one horror novel that doesn't rely on gross out slashing and hacking just for the shock value, but on heart and emotion too. I really liked the erotica and even humor sprinkled throughout and the last paragraph made me laugh out loud. I was totally involved with these characters and would highly recommend this book if you're looking for more than blood and guts, but for a real plot that tugs at your heart at the same time it's giving you major goosebumps. I am a new member of the Horror Writers' Association, the same as the author, and I see a bright future for this talented lady and eagerly await whatever her next novel may be. She inspires me to get my own novel finished! Congratulations, Ms. Campbell on a shining debut!

Summary: WOW!!!
Review: This lady is good! (You gotta love that staircase scene). The last time I experienced twists like this was on a roller coaster at magic mountain. Kelli captures the spirit of the characters, grinds it up, mixes it with water, and uses it for the ink in her printer. If you like horror or dark fantasy, you will LOVE this book...
