My Review

This book was as dark as the crow that cast his evil eye upon crash victim Monica. Why did the crow haunt her and enter her head leading her into an unending madness, when the crow had already taken her husband Tom and unborn child Josh from her? What secrets did the crow know? Why was Monica hiding from the truth? The scenes depicting Monica’s encounters with the crow were both breathtaking and terrifying in equal measures.
