The Uninvited

The Uninvited

by TimWynne-Jones (Author)

Synopsis

Mimi Shapiro had a disturbing freshman year at NYU, thanks to a foolish affair with a professor who still haunts her caller ID. So when her artist father Marc offers the use of his remote Canadian cottage, she's glad to hop in her Mini Cooper and drive up north. The little house on the snye is fairy-tale quaint, and the key is hidden right where her dad said it would be, so imagine her surprise when she finds someone living there - Jay, a young musician who doesn't even know Marc Shapiro. Jay is equally startled to meet Mimi, and immediately accuses her of leaving strange and threatening tokens inside: a dead bird, a snakeskin, a cricket soundtrack in his latest composition. But Mimi has just arrived, so who is responsible? And more alarmingly, what does the intruder want?

Media Reviews
The characters have strong voices and personalities - their realness, coupled with the idyllic setting, contrasts starkly (and thrillingly) with the story's dark side. * Publisher's Weekly *
With its dark legacies, intriguing relationships, hidden chambers, forbidden love and flowing blood, The Uninvited has all the appeal of a sexy vampire, sans the fangs. * Quill and Quire *
