Pearl (great name) was such an interesting character to follow. Don’t get me wrong, that girl attracts some serious chaos, but the writing style had me utterly sucked in to the story and hungry to discover what happened next in Pearl’s haphazard world.
I also really admired her tenacity, because things are really stacked against her at several points in the story but she just digs deep and carries on – I really liked that part of her character. She was also deeply flawed and made illogical choices at points but that just made this all the more readable.
My second favourite character was probably Lucas, he added a fun dimension to otherwise eerie events that unfold around Pearl.
Overall this was a good psychological thriller, with a few really nice fun touches – I don’t think I’ve read anything else by Nancy Savage but she’s an author I will look out for now.
My thanks to the author and Zooloos Book Tours for an ARC in return for an honest review.
Blurb: Pearl just checked in, to her own personal nightmare…
Things aren’t going well for Pearl Fuller. Reeling from a breakup and struggling to make ends meet, she’s sleeping on her ex’s couch and working nights at The Driftwood Motel. The same motel that years ago was the scene of the legendary Berkman murder. They say that room 52 has been empty ever since that night. But if that’s true why can Pearl see someone moving around in there? And why is she the only one who can hear that eerie voice? No one else seems concerned, but they don’t have to spend every night sitting alone at the front desk, certain that someone is hiding out there in the darkness, watching.
The only bright spot in Pearl’s life is Noah, a guy she recently met who has drawn her in with his charm and good looks. But it’s beginning to feel as though Noah isn’t who he says he is, and soon Pearl suspects he knows a lot more about room 52 than he’s letting on.Will Pearl discover the truth before it’s too late?
Or is she about to open the door to a nightmare so twisted that her worst fears will pale in comparison…
