While it doesn’t have the ghosty haunted premise of the previous books, the fact that it is set in New Orleans makes the reader quite aware that there will be more of a voodoo feel to it. I do love me a trilogy that is wrapped up and tidy, and this one most certainly does, not without a suspenseful and bone-chilling ending, of course. Here’s just one example:Īdditionally, this title succeeded in wrapping up the various storylines that began in previous books, interconnected characters that were apparent, but the depth to that connection was completely unknown. This time, it’s a combination of photograph Abby has taken and those they have found on their hunt for answers. Yet, in this case, the photographs are beautiful in their creepiness. This most recent installment is no different. Each and every one of these books is unique in that the author uses chilling photographs as found footage to help progress the story. When this conclusion to the trilogy was released, I could not wait to start it. It has become tradition for me to read them during the October read-a-thon and feature them as part of Murder, Monsters & Mayhem. Let me start off by saying I adore everything about this trilogy of books (starting with Asylum and Sanctum). Using found photographs, the Dan, Abby, and Jordan dig deep through the past to get answers about the mysterious messages, the unidentified photographer, and Dan's family history. With a name like that, it's obvious they are up to no good. His biological parents were tied to a dark and mysterious group called the Bone Artists. Dan learns that the horrific events that transpired last year may not have been random, but fate. Of course, the strangeness doesn't end once they reach New Orleans. Add on to this the strange photographer that seems to be following the trio on their road trip, it isn't unreasonable for the trio to be suspicious. The excitement is diminished when Dan begins receiving messages from a friend.who passed away last Halloween. Dan is more than willing to join in on the fun as well. Abby is thrilled to join in she's working on a project photographing historical sites and buildings. Jordan is moving in with his uncle in New Orleans this seems like the perfect getaway. To celebrate the end of senior year, the trio decides to take one final road trip together. That isn't an exaggeration the incidents that took place in Brookline Dorm (a former psychiatric hospital) at New Hampshire College Prep nearly took their lives. Published by Harper Teen, HarperCollins on September 1, 2015ĭan, Abby, and Jordan have barely survived their senior year. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from personal copy in exchange for an honest review.
