The Family Plot

However, for all that the plot is creepily enjoyable, and the characters mostly a joy to read, I do think this book has one thing working against it, and that is the backstory behind the house???s haunting. I will not say what, exactly, that backstory is, since so much of the enjoyment the reader derives from this book involves uncovering that backstory, but suffice to say that I wish it was a bit deeper, a bit more complex, than the story given in the novel. As it stands, it works just fine with the overall narrative, but I do wish that there had been a bit more meat on that particular bone than what currently exists.
