A 5 STAR REVIEW
“Capernicious” a Thrill Ride for Readers, June 29, 2015
By Author Stephanie Parker McKean
This review is from: Capernicious (Paperback)
Having thrust aside boring high school attendance for the thrill of becoming party girls, Sue and Cheryl run away from home and embark on risky lifestyle pursuits – hitchhiking, getting drunk, shoplifting. Then they get caught.
Several years later, the two are still best friends, but have chosen more rewarding lifestyles; employment for Sue and college for Cheryl. Plus Sue meets and marries mechanic Quinn Hanson. Professor James Bradford offers Quinn a job as an apprentice at Capernicious Academy.
Life simply couldn’t be better for Sue. Quinn loves his new job, they both love the added income, and what could be more rewarding than researching vitamins and supplements which will improve health? In fact, Quinn enrolls himself in the research and sees nearly immediate positive results in his physique and intelligence.
Sue finds the huge Capernicious Academy building with towers at each corner “creepy.” When she learns the history behind the building, she realizes why. The original building belonged to Lord Walter Capernum, a physician, grave robber, and murderer. Forced to flee England to escape the gallows, he arrived in America in 1890, and built a castle where he could continue his “experiments.” Playing god, Capernum attempted to build perfect humans using body parts from kidnapped victims. After Capernum died, the new owners of the castle found remains of more than 100 victims stacked in one of the tower rooms.
While the academy’s history is grim, deranged and creepy, neither Sue nor Quinn expect it to impact them. After all, history lives only in the past – right? Sure, there are rumors of a few missing people and even murder – but the academy has never been criminally charged in any of the events. And a building can’t be “evil,” can it?
Sue and Cheryl’s friendship send them on a new journey together where terror and danger is more frightening than any nightmare.
