This instalment came out six years after the previous books. As someone who read the earlier books when they came out, the long wait made for a bit of a let down when I actually read the book, as I am no longer an age appropriate reader. The book follows the same format as the previous books, girl with some sort of paranormal ability ends up in some sort of mystery, and with help of boy solves it. Other than the long wait, the book was very good. Anna O'Neill Kirkpatrick goes to stay with her aunt and uncle for the summer before college. Upon arriving, Anna learns that her uncle was killed in a fire the week before, something that she dreamt about the night it happened. Determined to solve the mystery of what happened to her uncle, Anna begins looking for answers, and along the way she discovers the truth about her family and what really happened to her birth mother when she was a baby. Anna accomplishes this with the help of Zack, the boy next door, who she just can't help but have feelings for. I really do love these books. There is always so much going on with the way Ms. Chandler writes, that is just keeps you entertain and hooked. The reader is first introduce to Anna who comes along after her uncle's death to help her aunt. Anna, is the type of girl who when a tragic incident strikes she will drop everything and help you. I adored her willingness and strength to help put her aunt. What I like most about this book or rather this series, is how the past comes back to haunt them. I like how well Ms. Chandler uses a past incident that still haunts them today. Either it be accidental death, revenge, or just plain ol' jealousy, I love that it is the base of this series. Ms. Chandler connects the past with the future generation that a secret that they must solve in order for the family to be a peace. The love interest in this book has me angry. Zack at first was a real jerk. I am glad that Anna called him out on it and made him look like a fool. I like that Zack even though was wrong, he fought for Anna. He decided to find out what the real truth was and did his own investigation. After he did that, I decided that he wasn't as bad as he seems. Though he did put on being jerk real good. The Dark secrets series has once again captured me. I love reading this series for it never lets me down! Elizabeth Chandler’s Dark Secrets novels all take place in the small town of Wisteria and, by The Back Door of Midnight (the fifth book in the series), Wisteria itself is as important as the characters that inhabit it. Small, occasionally friendly, and always full of mysteries and things that go bump in the night, Wisteria is the sort of town with a main street named “Main Street” and a populace with a habit of getting involved in one another’s personal lives. Midnight is no exception and begins with the teenaged Anna O’Neill returning to Wisteria because of a mysterious message from her uncle. When she reaches the town, though, she finds her uncle has been murdered and her life, and the lives of those around her, may be in terrible danger.
