Downpour by Christopher Hawkins


Description from Goodreads:

"A sudden storm appears above an isolated farmhouse in rural Illinois, bringing with it a relentless and unnatural rain. A rain that eats away at everything it touches. A rain that turns people into monsters.

Trapped inside his crumbling home, a father must do everything he can to keep his family from falling apart. But the rain calls to them, and not everyone wants to stay inside.

Haunted by memories of loss, he must put aside his painful past and find a way to keep them all safe. But the rain shows no signs of stopping, and time is running out."

📚📚📚📚📚

A rather strange and ominous cloud appears on the horizon and Scott just knows it's more than just a storm coming and as it approaches, the feelings of dread grow and when the rain arrives, the horror begins.  Scott is determined to keep his wife and children safe but all does not go to plan and Scott finds himself in an impossible situation.

Written with a growing sense of unease and impending doom and with a small cast of characters, Downpour is a pretty successful debut for this author.  I did find it a little repetitive however, it kept my interest until the end ... which I am still trying to process and haven't decided yet whether it was fitting or not!

Overall, a pretty good debut and my thanks go to the author and NetGalley for enabling me to read and share my thoughts of Downpour.
