Haunted
David Master is an author who loves the paranormal and sets out to discredit and disabuse people of the notion of real ghosts. Baudey House is renowned for its deadly history and it attracts David and his daughter, Amber.The story starts off at a steady pace as we learn about the town, the people, and the history behind Baudey House and the people who died there.
Once, there was a woman who ran the house as a brothel and helped women who had no place to go or who needed money to care for themselves. She soon had a daughter and as she began to grow, the woman noticed how she watched the men and the lascivious looks she tossed their way. Her daughter was not right. Voodoo is at the core of this story as it plays a hand in how the ghosts are able to stay around.
I don't want to give too much of the story away, but I will say that the pacing was off at times during the beginning of the book. We got a huge dose of interesting information and then we were left alone to explore the goings-on in the town and then the pacing would pick back up.
I really liked this ghostly tale and will look for more of Thorne's reads.
