The Empty Space by Linda Watkins

A dark and edgy Gothic thriller that skips the cliches and hits all the right dark notes, The Empty Space is a stellar addition to author Linda Watkins’ Kate Pomeroy series. Deftly building suspense with unexpected cutaways and reflections, this plot is far from typical, blending sinister moods and deadly relationships within a linguistic dance – one that is a sincere pleasure to read. Though the dialogue is occasionally brief, giving only a slice of a scene within a swirl of narration, Watkins has a confident voice that can grip a reader’s attention, both heart and mind. With a heroine whom readers have come to love at the center of this ever-intensifying series, The Empty Space is a thrilling ride.
