Readers speak
I literally glided through the pages. Holton is a really talented and experienced author. There were some great lines in this read. I didn’t even feel like the book was very long, although it was almost 200 pages. The characters were engaging and the mysterious voice that goes from nice guy to bad is dynamic and surprisingly relatable. (BAM)
These Walls Don’t Talk, They Scream kept me wanting more as I read effortlessly through the chapters. It is very seldom that a modern horror story stays with me for as long as this did. Long after leaving Charlotte and her friend, they stay on your mind in both satisfyingly creepy and empathetic ways. (Drew Sofranko)
Really enjoyed this book. I found it hard to put down. Compelling characters and setting. Much more of a chilling, psychological horror that creeps under your skin and stays with you. Looking forward to reading more from this author. (Zombie Inkpot)
Synopsis
“When three-year-old Charlotte witnessed her mother’s death and was left alone with the body, she began hearing the voice of a person living in the walls of her house.
This voice comforted her as best it could, guiding her to call 9-1-1. Twenty five years later, Charlotte has returned with her own family to reconnect with this presence.
The recent death of her son leaves her distracted and mourning, though, so she doesn’t realize her daughter can hear this entity too.”
