Chilling to the Bone

Sandom's writing is crisp and clean, often disturbingly poetic. The characters are so vivid, I found myself looking over my shoulder. This is one creepy thriller that captures the 80s to a T. It's a mixture of Bright Lights, Big City and Deliverance. The plot drives forward relentlessly, forcing you to watch, like a car crash observed from a traffic helicopter -- the protagonist's profession! You can see it happening but you can't stop it, you can't touch it, you can't do a damned thing . . . but watch and brace for impact. Superb. Made me run out and read Gospel Truths, Sandom's first . . . and I wasn't dissapointed.

Classic, gripping psychological thriller, equal with Turow

But when the stag night ends in murder their bonds of friendship tighten to become chains of secrecy and psycological blackmail....... The Hunting Club are hunting each other! - This is a superb thriller, with all the added extras, keeps you guessing, very cleverly written, a must for all thriller fans!
