"You can run. You can hide. But you can never escape..."

It's been more than 10 years since I've read this book, and I was lucky enough to stumble across it at a book sale the other day, seeing as how I had forgotten the author and title, and only remembered it by the front cover--of a skull shape in the blonde girl's hair.The book's about 15-year-old Marjorie Loring who is invited to stay with her beautiful cousin Charlene Kensington and her husband (David) for a few weeks in Larrimore Hills, Indiana. A short time later, Charlene starts receiving anonymous letters referring to an accident involving David, in which his previous wife tragically died--and warns that Charlene will be his next victim."Where Evil Is" isn't big on action; nevertheless, it is fast paced, due in part to it only being 117 pages, which should appeal to more reluctant young readers. The ending theory about David's first wife's death is a little far-fetched; but, overall, I liked the story. Worth reading if you're into low-key suspense.
