The Darkness That Binds Us

The Darkness Series, Book 2

By: Jessica Huntley

Narrated by: Candace Fitzgerald

It’s what we can’t see that scares us the most …

Twenty-five years ago, an unimaginable tragedy struck the town of Cherry Hollow, leaving its residents devastated and searching for answers. Grief overwhelmed the town for two decades until five years ago when the truth was finally revealed, but not everyone believed the story …

Now, a new family has moved to town, unaware of the secrets and lies that lurk under the floorboards of their new home that once belonged to Amber Walker, one of the five members of the original disaster.

Emma and Linda Smithson, and their two children, have moved there for a fresh start, determined to bury their murky pasts and forget about their own life-altering mistakes. But when they find out Amber took her own life, events start to unravel and suspicions begin to surface, as they each deal with their own darkness.

Jordan and Brooke, two of Amber’s best friends, are determined to prove that she was murdered, even if it means delving into the past, facing old enemies, and standing up to their previous demons. The ones they swore they’d never speak about again.

For the community of Cherry Hollow, it’s not all smiles and sunshine … because the darkness never left … and it won’t rest until it gets what it wants … The Truth.

A 4 1/2 star suspense thriller

The Darkness That Binds Us: A dark and twisted psychological thriller sequel to "The Darkness Within Ourselves" (The Darkness Series Book 2), my second read from author Jessica Huntley. A dark 362 page read that was hard to put down. “I received a free Kindle copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review." The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it. I look forward to reading more from this author and in particular The Darkness That Came Before: The heart-racing and thrilling conclusion to "The Darkness Series. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Such a great sequel

The Darkness That Binds Us is the second book in the Darkness series and I highly recommend reading them in order. The sequel was as chilling, creepy, eerie and heart pounding as book one. The little town of Cherry Hollow is a pleasure to revisit. The scenery is so vivid, I can see the events happening. Jessica's writing truly grabs you and grips you into her stories. She truly has a masterful skill at storytelling. The way she seamlessly made the 2 books come together, that were not even planned as a series truly blows my mind. It was flawless !

I am usually not a fan of the horror aspect, but the way the author has woven it into the book is flawless. The mental health aspect was once more so well done, done with grace, research and it was spot on. I am truly so invested in this story, these characters and this creepy town. Everything just feels so real, the emotions felt are so relatable.

The ending truly caught me off guard and I was not expecting that at all!! I can't wait to see where Huntley takes it in the chilling finale.

🎧 The narration by Candace Fitzgerald was once more amazing. She truly does this book justice in her narration. Giving us all the chills, the emotions, the fear and the constant building of suspense. She is amazing at voicing all the characters. Highly recommend it!

The Darkness that binds

This was a very good follow up to book 1.I enjoyed it and am looking forward to the next book. Narration by Candace Fitzgerald was well done. I was given this book free for an honest review.

Cherry Hollow, New Neighbors and the Return of the Creature

What is in the water or air in Cherry Hollow things only went from bad to worse for the fated 5. A creature on the loose and it definitely is not done with Cherry Hollow inhabitants not by a long shot. The book is a true masterpiece of psychological horror that will keep you on your toes especially with the twist you won't see coming. I highly recommend this book to anyone 18 and over as it does contain adult themes. I really enjoyed this book and all the twist. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving this honest and unbiased review here of my own volition.
