I enjoyed the creepiness. Gave me the creeps at time. But weird.
Told from past with Sara and Martin.
Present with Ruthie and Kathrine.
All about the sleepers. A way to bring back the dead.
Sara knew she kept a diary saying how. She even tried it herself.
But once Ruthie mom goes missing she's out to find answers to where her mom has disappeared to.
A story of suspense with a bit of creepiness too.

A creepy, atmospheric read with just the right amount of ambiguity in the ending.
