Fresh Fiction Review

Such Dark Things
Courtney Evan Tate

Reviewed by Teresa Cross

Suspense Psychological

SUCH DARK THINGS is one novel that will evoke lots of emotions, from happy at one point to mad in the next. This is great writing, you can feel the emotions of the main characters. The story is told through the eyes of two characters, Corinne and her husband Jude. Courtney Evan Tate, the author, has done an astonishing job of bringing out the characters' passions. You yourself feel their anger, love, and confusion as you read each chapter. Tate brings life to them. This psychological suspense even has some hot steamy scenes if you like novels that have a little sex in them. If not, then you might want to skip this one.

E.R. Physician, Dr. Corinne Cabot is a successful and beautiful woman who is married to a very attractive man, Jude, who is a physiologist. Corinne has suppressed memories from when she was younger, from a time when her father was arrested for killing two people in her presence. This has also left her dealing with paranoia. With all that behind her, she lives what seems to be a happy life with her husband and career. However, can looks be deceiving?

Along comes some predicaments that leave her fighting for her sanity, her marriage, and for her life. She has suspicions that her husband is not being totally honest with her and finds that her fears might not be paranoia after all.

SUCH DARK THINGS hits on many psychological issues, so beware. Courtney Evan Tate's novel keeps you thinking about it long after you have finished it. The story is not only told from the viewpoint of the wife and husband, but also has flashbacks that helps fill in the gaps of the story unfolding before you. This is done without the reader getting confused and in a way that will also explain everything you need to know in the right time. SUCH DARK THINGS is a novel full of suspense that you will love to read!

SUMMARY

A HORRIFIC RECURRING NIGHTMARE IS THREATENING TO STEAL HER SANITY…

Dr. Corinne Cabot is living the American dream. She’s a successful ER physician in Chicago who’s married to a handsome husband. Together they live in a charming house in the suburbs. But appearances can be deceiving—and what no one can see is Corinne’s dark past. Troubling gaps in her memory mean she recalls little about a haunting event in her life years ago that changed everything.

She remembers only being in the house the night two people were found murdered. Her father was there, too. Now her father is in prison; she hasn’t been in contact in years. Repressing that terrifying memory has caused Corinne moments of paranoia and panic. Sometimes she thinks she sees things that aren’t there, hears words that haven’t been spoken. Or have they? She fears she may be losing her mind, unable to determine what’s real and what’s not.

So when she senses her husband’s growing distance, she thinks she’s imagining things. She writes her suspicions off to fatigue, overwork, anything to explain what she can’t accept—that her life really isn’t what it seems.
