I absolutely love the real-deal research that clearly went into the creation of this mysterious read. I have always been fascinated by the Overtoun Bridge and the stories surrounding it. I remember seeing documentaries as a child about the dogs that would just leap up over the edge to their deaths. How tragic and unexplainable!

The Thin Place depicts a remarkably well rounded mystery, told by three different narrators, all in different times.
Marion begins her story in 1929 when she is courted by the handsome Hamish West and moved into his Overtoun estate in Scotland. Then we have the young Constance in 1949, who is a sickly child living in the Overtoun House. And finally, Ava in present day, who is a newly pregnant journalist who is covering a story at the old Overtoun property.

There is something off about the house and the property, causing Ava to become obsessed with it, learning everything she can. This place is taking over her life, filtering through her thoughts and her dreams. And she is sacrificing precious things in her life because of it.

Through the course of this book, we get to piece together the different inhabitants of the estate and uncover how their stories weave together. Ultimately, this was a great book! I thoroughly enjoyed the past look at the estate and the lore around it. It truly is such a remarkable story. But I had a very hard time connecting with Ava. I was unfortunately, very irritated with how she handled things through major areas of this book and simply wanted to shake the woman. Even still, I could understand that she was under a spell of sorts by the force of the house and the surrounding property. And that, in itself, was an incredibly interesting part of this story.

All in all, this was a well-crafted book with some fun twists and a lot of great history.
