A good short psychological horror read. Marie attempts to get back to normal after a tragic event, but her second chance backfires and Marie is back to grieving a different kind of loss.

This story is told from Marie's point of view. Marie is a teenage girl who is haunted by two ghosts in this story. The first ghost is Zoe, the baby that Marie miscarried. Understandably, her psychiatrist doesn't believe her when she says she's seen Zoe, and the doctor basically tells her that it's all in her head.
Later on, Marie is offered a job as a nanny to look after her psychiatrist's daughter, Amy. This is where things start to get quite spooky. Amy is convinced that her dead mum speaks to her through an old mobile phone.

I enjoyed this story, I just wish it had been longer. It was a very quick read, and although you do get sucked in to the story, the ending seemed to lack something.

A 'Turn of the Screw' style tale aimed at people who do not usually read books. Wasn't aware of that when I picked it up so it's not surprising I didn't enjoy it, but I'd recommend it to anyone new to reading who wants a creepy story.

Disappointing ending, book didn't reslly finish
