Publisher Description
‘Wowzers, what a read… I absolutely LOVED this book… An unputdownable page turner of a read.’ Ginger Book Geek, 5 stars
Jacob Reese enjoys the quiet life, running a coffee shop and renting out his cottage in The Hollows, Vermont.
But the calm is shattered when a woman who looks eerily similar to his ex-girlfriend Laura turns up to stay in the cottage, and leaves a mysterious note in the guest book.
Now Jacob’s seeing Laura everywhere—a glimpse of her face across the street, her music box left outside his house, a gift he gave her years before hanging from the trees.
But it can’t be Laura. Because Laura’s dead.
Someone knows Jacob’s secret—what really happened the night Laura died—and they’re out for revenge…
A gripping and twisted thriller. Fans of Gillian Flynn, Gregg Olsen and Mark Edwards will love Steve Frech.

Customer Reviews
Dark Hollows
Jacob Reese runs a coffee shop and a rents out a small cottage in a quaint New England town. After a young woman rents his cottage for a single evening, he finds his focus diverted from his normal activities by ghosts of his past. The approach of Halloween seems to give the ghost more energy. But is it a ghost or a remnant of his past that he has tried to bury deep in his memories.
The novel starts out slow as Jacob focuses on the daily activities involved with keeping his businesses not just thriving but growing. Luckily, it begins to pick up as he remembers a pivotal moment in his past and weird occurrences plague him.
Great read!
I have really been enjoying Steve French books. They are well written, simple, quicks reads. If you’re looking for a good mystery/thriller, I highly recommend!
Immersive storytelling
The rich characters and descriptive scenes of the old New England town always provided a vivid image in my mind as I sailed through each chapter, especially during the Halloween festivities. I’m now invested in the lives of these characters and hope to read more in subsequent books.
