Everyone has a few skeletons in their closets that they hope will never see the light of day, to be nothing but a forgotten memory, but the past has a nasty habit of digging itself out of the deepest darkest recesses of the mind and spilling its secrets, whether it’s a long-forgotten traumatic experience or the recollection of regrets and fears that was thought to hold no sway on a person’s current disposition.

Author Joan Kenny utilizes the idea of having a skeleton in the closet of one of the characters in her book “A Snake at My Shoulder” to create a narrative tale filled with romance, suspense, and haunting memories, all with a vivid description of the setting where the story is taking place.

The book could be considered by readers as a myriad of conflicting emotions that leave readers dumbstruck but utterly engaged in the progression of the narrative. Making it a reading experience unlike many others, where readers question the thought of the narrative is a work of literary fiction or based on an actual event that happened in the past.
