Sweetheart, Sweetheart...
Sweetheart, Sweetheart is an old style ghost story about twin brothers, Colin & David. David, who lives in New York, senses that his brother Colin is in trouble and he can't rest until he goes to visit him in England to find out what's going on...
I think one of the things Taylor does very well is creating that deep sense of foreboding and you can really feel that in the first half of the story especially. It does have a very slow building pace though, but if you stick with it, the second half of the story more then makes up for it. The culmination is very intense and chilling and it really tied up the story nicely, which isn't always the case, I think, in ghost & haunted house stories. If you enjoy a vintage ghost story, then this is a great pick.
