Summary

Considering she had just attended her mother's funeral, Gloria Jaymes never expected to see the woman again, but then her dead mom shows up at her house.

Gloria's mom is...different. She's younger than when she died, dressed in clothes from the 1980s. And nobody else in Gloria's family seems to recognize her. As Gloria tries to figure out the reason for her mother's reappearance and the odd behaviors the woman begins to exhibit, other bizarre events occur. The changes to Gloria's world are small and subtle, at first...then they become much more startling.

The freaky situation might just be connected to a mysterious shed in a small California town. The strangers who gather around the shed seem to know Gloria's name...and maybe they aren't strangers after all. With Gloria, Bentley Little presents one of his most complex and compelling novels - one that is certain to surprise listeners with every twist and turn.

Premise far more interesting than execution.

The Haunted was my first Bentley Little book and it genuinely scared me. This, however, did not. I'm trying to remember the story but I've forgotten it already. Stick with the plus catalogue Bentley Little books, they're brilliant and free.

Could Have Been Better

So, I've been listening to quite a lot of Bentley Little's books and for the most part, I love them. He's got the ability to reel you in and get you hooked. And initially I liked this book, but I felt the repetition of things that were happening (I don't want to spoil it for anyone) was a bit too much and it became harder and harder for me to go along with. It could have been so much better. I just felt let down about midway through. I've really loved some of his other offerings, so maybe this one just wasn't for me.
