Why read it?

1 author picked To Break a Covenant as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

A recent addition to the horror genre, this excellent debut novel excels in creating a surreal narrative drenched in dark atmosphere.

I dare you to read creepy descriptions of ‘found’ footage and not feel a chill as this mystery unfolds. 

From Katya's list on horror with mixed media format.
