Synopsis

No. 1 bestselling author Josephine Cox returns with a powerful, dark love story shrouded in shocking secrets and malignant forces. All Jack's life, the nightmares had haunted him, dragging him back to a place where it was always midnight… Molly and Jack are deeply in love but their relationship is being torn apart by Jack's nightmares. Trapped in a place where he is taunted by eyes in the gloom, it is becoming harder for Molly to pull him free, and when daylight comes the haunting visions remain. He can make no sense of them, though, when he is deep in the dreams, he knows exactly what's demanded of him. Realising that Jack is being driven close to the edge, Molly urges him to seek help, and with their relationship faltering, Jack decides to hunt for answers. His search takes him back to the place where he grew up, and it soon becomes clear that he must trace people from his past, particularly the one person he could turn to through his troubled childhood. But Jack could never have imagined the true horrors of what he is about to uncover…

Goodreads review by Rachael

Not a bad story, but the execution failed for me. I felt that there were a lot of irrelevant lines of the story that led to dead ends and that the ending was very rushed. Perhaps if these irrelevant parts had been left out the revelation could have been better explored and executed. I like the idea......more

4.5 stars Midnight is a modern day tale which was a little different as I’m accustomed to Josephine Cox’s historical fiction still, a most enjoyable read. Jack and Libby were wonderful characters. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough to find out the mystery behind Jack’s nightmares. *Book #49/72 of m......more
