Title: Just painful.
Review: A young couple moves into a house with a grisly past. One of them is aware of this; the other is oblivious until she begins to see horrific images in the basement. The novel belabors this situation for about three quarters of the way, after which the plot takes a serious left turn that everyone but the protagonist can see coming. Girón throws in a lot of weirdness for weirdness' sake, such as a man who can remove his skin to feed his company of wolves, but none of it is ever justified. It all leads up to a climax where the ultimate villain of the book is defeated by someone throwing a stick at it. Really.The prose is terrible, as is the dialogue. Nobody uses contractions so they all sound like robots at one time or another. Where was the editor? Perhaps he or she didn't think it worth the trouble.Leisure has published some great work that you won't want to miss. This isn't one of them
