The Dark Beneath the Ice by Amelinda Berube Black Swan meets Paranormal Activity in this compelling ghost story about a former dancer whose grip on reality slips when she begins to think a dark entity is stalking her.

Or even that her mother has checked herself into the hospital. She's losing time. Doing things she would never do.
