Summary
If ye give not willingly, the Lords will rise....
In 1913, Henry Hamilton disappeared while on a business trip, and his sister, Sorrow, won’t rest until she finds out what happened to him. Defying her father’s orders to remain at home, she travels to Tidepool, the last place Henry is known to have visited. Residents of the small, shabby oceanside town can’t quite meet Sorrow’s eyes when she asks about her brother.
When corpses wash up on shore looking as if they’ve been torn apart by something not quite human, Sorrow is ready to return to Baltimore and let her father send in the professional detectives.
However, after meeting Ada Oliver, a widow whose black silk dresses and elegant manners set her apart from other Tidepool residents, Sorrow discovers Tidepool’s dark, deadly secret.
With this discovery, some denizens of Tidepool - human and otherwise - are hell-bent on making sure Sorrow never leaves their forsaken town.
Lovecraftian dark fantasy gets a modern treatment in this terrifying debut novel.

Good Story Marred by a Poor Narration
Old style cosmic horror - a clever story spoiled by the stilted delivery of the narrator who makes several jarring mispronunciations of common words.

Decent slow-paced Loftcraftian horror
Some nice atmospheric moments and a good sense of mystery pervade the story of a woman seeking her missing brother. While I enjoyed it overall, the narrator unfortunately didn't help the experience - there are many unusual pauses in sentences that break the flow. Perhaps they are for commas, but the pauses are just a little too long so that they feel like a new paragraph when actually something is a sub-clause. Likewise, there are occasional moments where the horror and action escalates, but the narrator's tone doesn't shift at all. Perhaps this was the direction she was given. It's definitely listenable, but not my favourite performance on here.
