Disappointing Direction for the Series
The series title, 'The Haunting' led me to believe that the series would be centred on a haunting - or even hauntings (multiple) - but it really isn't.

The writing feels rushed, it's poorly edited with inconsistencies, and seems to 'borrow' a lot from other writers and stories.

I wasn't sure whether to continue with the series, given how disappointed I was with this book, but given that the whole series was included in the Kindle Unlimited subscription, I decided to give the writer the benefit of the doubt.

So I just read I am I am I am by Maggie Ofarrell and it was beautiful....

I then read the immortalised by Chloe Benjamin and it was haunting.

Seriously, I am in awe of these two most recent reads.

My biggest beef with this book is that the plot didn't really seem to go anywhere and has too many unresolved problems. They never catch the killer, never find her body, and Susie's restless spirit is still probably haunting her family.
