MY REVIEW

Seven Sisters is a small town in need of help.  The new highway bypassed the town and it’s hurting. Siblings Valerie and Danny grew up there. Along with the rest of the residents, they should move on. Head for greener pastures. Something keeps them there. When Emma comes to town, it might be a blessing to all. Or maybe not. She could be the worst thing that could happen.

I’ve always loved stories where the main protagonists captured my heart. Which Valerie and Danny did. And where secondary characters had their time to shine. Perhaps to steal the show. My fondness for the characters kept the suspense tuned to a high level. The mystery that surrounded Emma escalated the deeper I got into the story. When the elements, such as the blizzard, compound the character’s chances of survival, it’s always a big draw for me. And the ending set me back on my heels. There were some pretty gruesome events and they grew uglier the closer I got to the conclusion.

The snow storm blew in and the creatures began to do their thing. Then it was wanton mayhem. And I relished every messy bit of it.

Synopsis

Valerie Miller and her younger brother have spent their entire lives in the dreary town of Seven Sisters, where most people are resigned to a bleak future of debt and despair. But when a mysterious woman with a dark past arrives, she brings with her a gift that could transform the town’s fortunes – and the lives of Val and Danny.

This extraordinary woman’s power is both awe-inspiring and terrifying, capable of unleashing a force that will shake Seven Sisters to its core. The stakes are high, and danger is omnipresent. Can Val and Danny rise to the challenge and seize the opportunity to finally break free from the suffocating grip of their hometown? Or will they fall victim to the terrors unleashed by this enigmatic figure? One thing is certain–when the sun rises on Seven Sisters, nothing will ever be the same again.

Part creature-feature, part survival story, What Doesn’t Kill You will keep you on the edge of your seat as Val and Danny fight for their lives and all of Seven Sisters.
