More About This Book

Overview

Once You Enter

Old houses have their secrets. The Young residence-a beautiful Maine mansion overlooking the Atlantic-is no exception. But the secrets here are different. They can kill...

The Only Way Out

Carolyn Cartwright, private detective and ex-FBI agent, has been hired by Howard Young to investigate a string of gruesome family deaths. The crimes are horrific, brutal, and senseless. And the time has come for the killing to begin again...

Is To Die

One by one, members of the Young family are chosen to die. Old and young, weak and strong, no one is safe from a killer with a limitless thirst for revenge. And the only way for Carolyn to uncover the shocking truth is to enter the room no one has ever left alive-and make herself the next target...

    more from this reviewer

    Readers will thoroughly enjoy the locked room mystery inside a haunted house tale

    For nine years and three hundred and sixty-four days, the Young Mansion in Maine is an ordinary home. The room that remains locked always is quiet except on the first day of a new decade. A sacrifice of a family member must be made so every ten years a lottery is held and the selected one is left inside the room.

    This has been going on since 1930 with everyone who spent time in the room dead except for one survivor. Since the room is locked, the other family members assume the people commit suicide except for that one female who lived, but her mind was fried and spent four decades inside a padded cell. The patriarch Howard Young hires former FBI Agent Carolyn Cartwright who has dealt with supernatural cases to find a way to break the curse. Carolyn knows her first step is to learn what happened in 1930 in that room and the second step is to pray she and the Young family survive the truth.

    Readers will thoroughly enjoy the locked room mystery inside a haunted house tale reminiscent of early King and Koontz. There is a steady growing tension as the answers to the cause percolates, but the solution seems to never boil to the surface. John Manning provides the audience with a chilling tale as the heroine knows there is only one way to learn the truth.

    Not my typical reading pick but I'm glad I decided to read it. It was an interesting story that wasn't too cliched like most horror novels.

    Like a slasher movie, in book form...

    but at least it had a plot! The plot was stretched a bit thin in places, but still, it kept me guessing and trying to figure out the ending before I had read that far. I am of the opinion that the first part of the book was better than the last. I just wasn't crazy about the sensless gore toward the end. However, it was easy to read and understand. It caught my attention and held it. There were some editorial errors (at one point the characters sat on a 'soda' instead of a 'sofa') and there seemed to be more toward the end
