Only 100 Pages through, but OH MY GOD!!!!!

Well, as the title suggests, I am only just under 100 pages through this book, and I am utterly awe-struck by the whole affair.This books out-grosses anything that any other horror author I have ever read has(and probably ever WILL) write.Nothing compares to the sheer sickness of this book, it contains everything you could ask for - gore,sex,incest, horror, etc.Read it now!

Heart-Thumping Horror!

This novel features: a blind doctor who is completely mad and sadistic; a washed-up reporter in turmoil; an exotically beautiful girl. There are depraved games of torture, and perverse eroticism.I was reading this book late one night when, just as I got into a scene with the mad doctor mutilating one of his victims, I was startled by a loud noise on the roof. I actually jumped, and my heart thumped. It was a possum running around up there. Even though I knew what it was I had trouble shaking the fear. This is the first book which has affected me so powerfully.I loved that sensation, and kept on reading right through the night until I had finished the book. David Martin is a master of suspense!

Bring me a stiff drink !

If this were ever made into a film it would be the scariest film ever with one of Hollywoods all time villians.John Lyon is an unemotional newsreader who breaks down on prime time whilst reading a story about dying children.He is then visited by an old women who tells him to investigate Mason Quindell and to find out about the truth about missing babies. Lyon rents a cabin where he meets some of the strangest twisted sadistic people ever to grace the pages of a novel. Martin has the knack of painting very vivid characters, and some really brutal and erotic scenarios. The book has characters rather than heroes and the reader is carried along at a frenetic pace.

What a ride!

John Lyons was an untouchable news anchor until he breaks down in a fit of sobbing on live national television. Now John has to redeem his image, following a strange story of abducted children in a quiet West Virginia town. He quickly runs into a blind doctor that is on the unusual side and finds out more than he ever wanted to know. A great read for those who enjoy their suspense and gore. Martin takes it to the limit in this novel. Very dark.
