“I can have
no more blood on my hands.” (10)
James was a
typical average man with a wife and kids. His aim was to do good in life—be
good to his kids, be good to his colleagues, be good to mankind.
“What makes
a person good is this: actively making a conscious decision to do what is right
in spite of the consequences.” (15) It would seem that James had the weight of
the world on his shoulders. But what would happen when your world is suddenly
taken from you? That’s what happened to James when a dark figure emerged from
out of the night, attacking his wife and daughter. Panicked and confused, James
frantically pursued the attacker, doing everything to save his family. But it
was too late. They were both dead…and James knew that this was all his fault. But
what were these dark creatures out of the night?
Story was
pretty good. It definitely gives the reader chills with these scary things
coming after you. I especially like the psychology of fear—the fear of
loneliness, the fear of darkness, the fear of death. And James fought so hard
to face that fear.
It was
literary horror at its finest.
My rating: 4 stars
