Fifteen-year-old Matt Moore seems to have it all: a loving mother, a caring stepfather, a host of friends, and a growing relationship with the most beautiful girl in school. All signs point to a bright future, until fate intervenes.

After a sudden fire leaves Matt's senile and troubled grandmother homeless, she moves in with the family. Her ceaseless demands cause unrelieved tension - and with her comes a shameful secret about her daughters that traps Matt between a dead aunt who haunts him and his own mother, who seeks redemption for her sister's sins - and her own. Matt transforms from a gregarious teenager to a hostile loner prone to fits of rage - tortured by chilling memories and haunted by nightmares.

Then a shocking tragedy shatters the family beyond repair, propelling Matt's mother and grandmother into a final, explosive confrontation...a showdown in which old wounds will be viciously torn open - and a horrific shadow from the past will spring an implacable life of its own, clawing toward Matt with the ferocious inevitability of death itself.

Storyline excellent! Narration clipped, too quick and lacking inflection. Still recommended for the story. No waste of a credit with this one.

Very interesting story

Love all his work and this book is yet another great one. I’ve read most of his books at least twice.

John Saul never fails me

John Saul has always been one of my favorite horror authors. He gives just enough gore to make you think it's your normal horror book then takes it and throws it on it's side with psychological instead. I read this book YEARS ago and just now listened to it in Audio Book. Amazing. Just amazing!

You don't see the ending coming and even then you are left second guessing. Well done! I wish he was still publishing books!

Horror with a reasonable ending

I read 2 novels by him in High School. Neither of them was this one. My school days were over a few years before Nightshade was published. I enjoyed Nightshade very much.

Cheers for John Saul
