Sleep Tight by J.H. Markert

If you're looking for the perfect book to read this spooky season, look no further!! I absolutely loved everything about this. It was so compulsively readable, I pretty much read it in one sitting. I’ve seen a lot of book comparisons swirling around, but I would have to say that this felt like a solid mix of The Whisper Man by Alex North and The Chestnut Man by Soren Sveistrup. It had a strong police procedural vibe in a lot of ways, but also strong horror elements and very unsettling pacing/imagery. There were a few scenes here that will genuinely keep me up at night. The only thing that kept me from rating this a full 5 stars is that I felt like the ending wrapped up a little too quickly, but it still felt like a very fitting conclusion to the story.
