"Something wicked lies in Jacobi Park." Indeed. Set in the summer of 1975, in a typical all-American town in upstate New York, something evil simmers just below the surface. This is a fast-paced supernatural mystery that you won't want to put down once you begin reading it. I found the main character, Mike, so compelling as he deals with loneliness after his wife dies. I am still a bit confused about the details of Major Jacobi, the villain of the story but since it is a supernatural tale, the author is free to set his own parameters. This book provided a much-needed escape from the sweltering heat when I needed it and I'm grateful.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Black Rose Writing for the digital ARC. All opinions and the review are my own.
