I've completed my book for January. I used the second prompt ~ a book by an author who is new to you.

This book was published under two names. The one I read was Dark Garden. But Death in the Fog is a much more appropriate title, as Fog is truly one of the main characters of the book.

I found this book while searching my library for Dark Garden by a different author. When I saw this book, I checked it out just to see what it was like. Turns out I liked it a lot!

The book was originally published in 1933. It's a very atmospheric mystery. Not only is Fog a main character, but so are mirrors, mirrors in which one can see something, but when one turns around, nothing is there. 

The last 20 nail-biting pages will encourage me to try another book by this author.
