Bad Man by Dathan Auerbach

3.0

This book was definitely fascinating, and had enough mystery, creepiness, and hidden corners to keep me reading through, but I had to give it three stars because the twist of Beverly being the one responsible came a bit out of nowhere for me.

She was described and written as an odd person, though one who seemed warm to Ben. Things got creepy when he and Marty went to check her abandoned house, but did I miss something?? All of a sudden he's telling the police to look into Beverly because of the house and the weird symbol and his talk with Robbie, and then BAM, we get the phone ringing in the locked room and the ending. Again, unless I missed a clue, the ah-ha came a bit out of left field.
