Title: Falls Apart toward the End
Review: WINTER WAKE started off with five stars, and steadily lost them as the original solid story devolves into THE SHINING meets FATAL ATTRACTION with a sprinkling of Peter Straub's GHOST STORY.I got the impression that the author didn't really want to write a ghost story. The characters and setting are sharply drawn and in the beginning the book is compelling.Then we bring in the marauding rats. Finally there's a finale that's supposed to be surprising but simply piles one cliche on top of another.If the book were 150 pages shorter this might not be so bad. But as is it feels like a miniseries that makes a desperate attempt to fill out the hours to its alloted length.
