The Restless Ones
There's no rest for the wicked… or the dead they've left behind.
It's been four years since the Hartnett House Massacre. Four years since Whitley Adams rescued her sister, Nora, from a nightmare she herself still struggles to escape.
When a documentary filmmaker expresses interest in telling their story, Whitley's sister believes it could be the answer to all their troubles. A chance to finally confront their past, and move on with their lives once and for all.
The past isn't the only thing waiting at Hartnett House. More than memories roam its forgotten halls. More than shadows lurk behind its dark, unwashed windowpanes. Something sinister has awaited Whitley's return since that fateful night four years ago, biding its time for one thing, and one thing only...
Revenge.

This author is so under hyped, this was such a good spooky read. It had me hooked from the first page, somehow it felt like such a light and easy read, even though it was a thriller. I wasn’t completely satisfied with the ending and who was responsible for all of the deaths, but the writing style was perfect and I still loved reading this. The main reason I loved this so much, was the fact that it didn’t follow the usual narrative of a thriller, it felt really quite unique. A lot of thrillers follow the same style as a Frieda McFadden novel, the first half one character is crazy, then you find out at the half way point that actually, they’re the innocent party. But The Restless Ones wasn’t like that, which I really appreciated. I also didn’t expect the paranormal aspect of this, but again, i appreciated it.

This was not bad, very predictable but I loved some of the imagery, the overall story, and the characters. A fun haunted house read with a solid backstory to start off spooky season with.
