The Night Singers

London Clarke’s books contain supernatural elements, and this book was no exception. Ghostwriter Callie Rowe has just been asked to be the ghostwriter of the elusive, reclusive, and mysterious rock star, Riff Fall’s memoir. Callie is no stranger to rock stars; her father was in a band, and she loves music. But when she gets to Riff’s home to interview the man whose wife mysterious vanished years ago, she is met with a set of rules.

“Don’t go near the attic door.
Don’t go outside after midnight.
Don’t ever listen to them.”

Strange, but doable, right? But why those rules? Rock stars are eccentric but what is going on? Who shouldn’t she listen to and why? Why has Riff never left his home? When things begin to go bump in the night, and more is revealed, she realizes that danger really is lurking, waiting, and watching.

This book is in the horror category but is more on the creepy side than the horror side, in my opinion. Things that happen are horrific but not gory. I enjoyed the sense of unease, tension, and the mounting danger in the book. Plus, this book oozes with atmosphere. It also has the isolated trapped feeling that I enjoy in books.

I first read London Clarke’s work when I read The Neighbor and was excited to read this book as well. I found this book to be well written, well thought out, creepy, mysterious, dark, entertaining, and an enjoyable read.
