Chasing the Dead - Joe Schreiber

Sue is a single mother of an 18 month old girl. One day she gets a phone call from a strange man, telling her that he has kidnapped her daughter and her nanny. When she realized that it is true, she descends into a nightmare. The book is told over the course of one evening of Sue trying to rescue her daughter. What starts out as a crime drama quickly takes a supernatural turn, and you have no idea what is going to happen next.

I particularly enjoyed this book as I am both a horror nut and the mother of a girl the same age. I could relate to how Sue felt if my daughter was in danger.

This is very fast paced book, and a pretty quick read. If you are looking for something short, fun, and scary, I highly recommend it.
