Behind the Veil by E.J. Dawson

A haunting Gothic drama triggering humanity’s deepest and oldest fears, Behind the Veil by E.J. Dawson is a powerful reflection on mortality and the lengths some will go to find closure or their own separate peace. A suspenseful but patient ride from start to finish, Dawson has created an empathic and endlessly engaging protagonist in Letitia – tortured, but hardened and indomitable. The mystery of the kidnapped children unfurls in fits and starts, at its own pace, but the plot is well supported by a poignantly penned cast of characters that readers can envision and invest in. Emulating a 1920s literary voice, without ever letting the style slip, this paranormal thriller is sinister, macabre, and hugely entertaining.
