The writing is good and the story is very interesting and it held my interest but the lack of explanation or background of the relationship between the Brent man and the Delandre woman makes this seem incomplete and rushed. This story was a bit Poe-like with some similarity to The Tell-Tale Heart.

Chilling and creepy. Good start, interesting story line, incomplete ending. Gothic in nature-- walled up bodies do not stay dead. Enjoyable read!
