Her drive, her pain, and her venom are believable as she hunts down a monster. After the finale events of Stillhouse Lake, she is desperate to protect her kids whatever the cost. Having gotten a glimpse into the minds of these characters, I'm even more eager to see this series expanded into more books. Seeing Gwen through the eyes of Sam, Lanny and Connor, feeling their doubt over her trustworthiness, was a big part of this book. I'm not usually a fan of multiple perspectives, especially more than two, but it worked well here. Killman Creek differs from the first in that it is more action-packed, more full of pulse-pounding moments of terror, and there are four perspectives. In many ways, it's a horrible book full of moments that made me feel furious and sad and helpless. I did not imagine how dark this book would become. I really enjoyed the first book but I figured, given how things were left at the end, this sequel would be a standard game of cat and mouse until eventually the bad guy was caught and everyone lived happily ever after. Going into Killman Creek - the sequel to Stillhouse Lake - I wasn't that excited about it.
Blink, and he's walking up the stairs of the motel to the second floor's open walkway. Melvin Royal stalks me in the brief darkness when I close my eyes.
