The Angel of Indian Lake is the gripping, well written, well thought out, and pulse pounding conclusion to ‘The Indian Lake Trilogy’. Those who have read and enjoyed the previous books My Heart Is a Chainsaw and Don’t Fear the Reaper will be blown away by this bloody good book. If you have not read the previous two books in the series, I would suggest you do so before reading this book.

The Angel of Indian Lake, along with the previous books, reads like a love letter to horror movies. I lost count of all the references to characters and movies that are mentioned in this book. Jade Daniels has come back to Proofrock, Idaho, four years after the events in the previous book, and curse of the Lake Witch is waiting.

The action begins right away and ventures into the OTT category. Jade has grown and matured since we last saw her. Now back in Proofrock, she is still trying to protect those she cares for. But when it’s Halloween, all bets are off, and the town’s curse will come calling. As with the other books, there will be blood, gore, and danger around every corner. Thankfully Jade is a fan of horror movies and will rely once again on her knowledge learned from watching scary movies, as the proverbial you-know-what hits the fan.

Gripping, shocking, and dark, Stephen Graham Jones has ended his trilogy beautifully. I found the ending to be very fitting. Be sure to read his author’s note at the end of the book. It’s a must read as well.

Gripping, shocking, scary, and dark.

Thank you to S&S/Saga Press and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
