In the 1970s backwater of Coden, Alabama, a teenage orphan called Annie mysteriously arrives and quickly drives a wedge in an apparently perfect family. Full of creepy supernatural elements and family secrets reminiscent of
The Turn of the Screw and
The Amityville Horror,
The Darkling by R. B. Chesterton (aka Carolyn Haines) is a quick and easy read, which is sometimes exactly what you want on a sunny, beautiful afternoon. HM
