AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Something hasn’t been right at the roadside Sun Down Motel for a very long time, and Carly Kirk is about to find out why in this chilling new novel from the New York Times bestselling and award-winning author of The Broken Girls.


Upstate New York, 1982. Viv Delaney wants to move to New York City, and to help pay for it she takes a job as the night clerk at the Sun Down Motel in Fell, New York. But something isnʼt right at the motel, something haunting and scary.

Upstate New York, 2017. Carly Kirk has never been able to let go of the story of her aunt Viv, who mysteriously disappeared from the Sun Down before she was born. She decides to move to Fell and visit the motel, where she quickly learns that nothing has changed since 1982. And she soon finds herself ensnared in the same mysteries that claimed her aunt.

Ce que les critiques en disent

Praise for The Sun Down Motel

“Deliciously creepy. A chilling blend of mystery and ghost story that will thrill fans of both.”—Riley Sager, New York Times bestselling author of Lock Every Door

"Simone St. James knows that true terror, as she effectively illustrates in The Sun Down Motel, goes beyond things that go bump in the night....St. James deftly melds an engrossing mystery with a tense supernatural thriller....keeps the tension high with myriad surprising twists."—Associated Press

“There are very few novels that leave me feeling genuinely spooked....Simone St. James's The Sun Down Motel is very much one of those books, taking twists and turns that are equal parts compelling and creepy.”—PopSugar

"This creepy supernatural thriller will send shivers down your spine.”—GoodHousekeeping.com

“[A] truly nightmarish trip back and forth in time and into the supernatural...guaranteed to keep readers rapt...What a story!”—Booklist (starred review)

“This novel is a creepy delight.”—The New York Post

"When are we too old for ghost stories? As long as they are as taut and twisty as Simone St. James' latest novel, make that never....Readers of this thoroughly entertaining thriller won't be disappointed."—Minneapolis Star Tribune

“Spooky, unsettling, and brilliantly written, The Sun Down Motel is mesmerizing from the first page. A breathlessly suspenseful supernatural mystery that will hook you early, and never let go.”—Jennifer Hillier, author of Jar of Hearts, ITW Thriller Award winner for Best Novel

I couldn’t stop listening. It’s a very interesting plot. I always enjoy the author’s weaving of actual mysteries and ghost stories. I was also happy that this one didn’t have any romance. I find her romantic subplots really weak.
Having said that, the story is predictable but that didn’t ruin the charm at all. I was completely hooked.

Very gripping

I enjoyed this story. A bit of a mystery, with some supernatural events, too. I don’t understand why it’s called a horror, is not scary. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys this genre.

We’ve all seen them on a road trip or family vacation, every town has one right on the pre-Interstate Highway system, the roadside motel. They were a place to stop and get a few winks on your way from point A to point B. In this day and age of chain hotels and frequent flyer plans, the old roadside motel has taken a hit. They have been replaced by the need to get “there” faster and to need the sameness and standardization that we expect, and Norman Bates may have hurt the industry a wee bit. The ones that have survived seem rundown and outdated; this gives them a creepiness that Simone St. James has capitalized on.

The Sun Down Motel was a great story. The Audible version mimics the parallel timelines with two narrators, one for each protagonist, and fits perfectly with the story. I’m a sucker for the parallel timelines, two great suspense stories for the price of one admission, St. James pulled this off masterfully.

St. James’ characters were fabulous. I loved the many levels of quirk that she added to them. Each one, dead and alive, had their own unique personality.

I had my own personal icks with this story. With the innovative story, incredible characters and impeccable selection of narrators, I still saw the twist coming a mile away. Beyond this, St. James felt the need to insert a #metoo element to her story. I get it, authors want to be relevant and to put their own personal feelings into their books. For myself, when I read, I like to get away from the ugliness of reality.

The old roadside motel.

Decent but uninspired writing. Some atmosphere, in parts, but unoriginal, plodding stuff. Highly forgettable.

Solidly mediocre

One of my faves this year, great mystery with a supernatural element. I usually read thrillers but was wanting something a little different and this did not disappoint. Starts off a little slow but everything comes together nicely at the end. Enjoyed the performance from the narrators as well, worth the credit.

Spooky Mystery
