The Redwood Asylum: A Paranormal Horror
£2.70
The dead do talk … if you’re brave enough to hear their sinister secrets.
In a thick forest sits a forgotten stone building, The Redwood Asylum. Once inside, the criminally insane, the darkly disturbed, and the eternally confused residents learn one thing very quickly: they are at the mercy of ruthless evil in many forms.
At twenty-six, Jessica Rosen starts a new job at Redwood in the hopes of forgetting an insidious past. She quickly realizes, however, that Redwood harbors malevolent secrets and beings in every chilly corner. On her second day adjusting to her job, the unstable man in 5B quickly latches onto Jessica in an unsettling way. When his rantings and warnings start to make sense, though, Jessica will be taken on a ride of secrets, murder, and dangerous beings.
As she begins to uncover the horrifying truths behind the man’s past , the terrors of Redwood Asylum will follow her home and make her question her own sanity.
Can Jessica solve the secrets of the man in 5B in time to save herself, or will the terrors trap her in Redwood’s evil clutches forever?
A spine-tingling page-turner by USA Today Bestseller L.A. Detwiler perfect for paranormal horror fans.

Paranormal meets horror is a great way to describe this book! I enjoyed the way the story was told. I couldn’t believe what happened and what was happening the whole time. So so so so good!

I had really enjoyed A Serial Killer’s Daughter by the same author so bought this but was really disappointed. No building of tension, no character development and not at all spooky or scary – the Serial Killer’s Daughter was far scarier! It was also quite repetitive – 5B draws a picture, she takes it home, sees the ghost then the same thing happens again. And again. I’ve given it a couple of stars because I hadn’t actually spotted the ending so that was in its favour. It won’t stop my reading the author’s other books but think I’ll pass on the ‘paranormal’ ones., I like my horror with more suspense!
