I have to say that I picked up the book because of the cover before even reading the synopsis. Once I read the synopsis I knew this was a book for me.  Dyatlov Pass has always fascinated me and all the lore that surrounds it.  I read some of the reviews as I read the book and I do agree with them saying they were getting The Ruins and As Above So Below vides.  I enjoyed most of the book, then it took a turn in the last quarter. That was when it lost me and I got a little bored that it didn't feel like picking it back up.  I felt a little cheated out of a better ending and it also felt a little rushed. This is Jenny Kiefer's debut novel and I can see her writing going up from here.  I will pick up her other books if/when she writes them.
