Where Silence Gathers

SYNOPSIS:
Seventeen-year-old Alexandra Tate sits outside Nate Foster’s house, clutching a gun. After serving ten years for the drunk driving accident that killed Alex’s family, Nate has been released from prison. Every night, Alex waits out of sight, building up the courage to exact her own justice. There’s just one problem: Forgiveness.

Alex has been able to see personified Emotions for as long as she can remember, and Revenge is her best friend. But when Forgiveness suddenly appears, he offers Alex a choice—getting even or moving on. It’s impossible to decide when Revenge whispers in one ear… and Forgiveness whispers in the other.

WHY SHOULD YOU CHECK IT OUT?
Even without having read the first in this series, this one sounds enthralling. The concept of a girl pulled between the personifications of Revenge and Forgiveness, the metaphor not even pretending to hide, has a chilling darkness about it.

The cover, while beautiful and ominous, leans heavily on the standard romance images of a pretty girl in a pretty dress. It’s a cover image that is clearly aiming for specific readers… which may be a disservice to others who don’t normally go for the tortured romances.

This is author Kelsey Sutton’s second novel. SOME QUIET PLACE is going to be a tough act to follow, as it was very well received and unique. Check it out, to learn more about Alex and her dealings with personified Emotions!
