For fans of American Horror Story. After the death of his wife by his own failing, William flees the hardship of Depression-era Sydney with his young daughter, Rosa. Battling his addictions, William travels far south and finds work on a remote island whaling station. But when Rosa finds a small scrimshaw marionette under the wharf, a restless spirit awakens to puppeteer the living and drag them into the sea. Grappling with his sanity and reason, William must confront the truth of the past and put the restless marionette ghost to rest to save his daughter and himself. From the pen of Mike Jones, this is Australian gothic horror at its finest
Okay I was a little confused as to how the prologue and the main part of the book connected until more than the half way point. Really wasn't my cup of tea and i'll read anything. I don't know i'm on the fence on this one. My rating is based on the fact that the book was tied up by the end and there was a good ending. I was worried there for a moment that things would be worse for the main character. I mean so many things went wrong in his life that he needed something to go his way. Would like to read the opinion of others.
