BOOK DESCRIPTION

 

You set the trap. Now you can’t escape.

When an online prank goes viral and triggers a spate of gruesome murders, documentary maker Hazel Salter watches in horror. But then Hazel’s childhood friend, Meredith Hickman, is the next victim and Hazel knows she has to find out what happened to her.

 

Is it one killer or more? Random acts of violence, or part of a bigger, twisted plan?

The police have no leads, but Hazel has a theory – one she’ll stop at nothing to prove – and she also has a film crew. She’ll make a documentary, catch the killer, and give Meredith justice.

Her stage is the abandoned amusement park where Meredith was found.

Her cast are the family and friends the killer left behind.

And her crew? They keep disappearing, one by one…

A shocking, ‘just-one-more-page’ thriller with the most twisted killer you’ll ever meet. This book will hook you from the first page and keep you guessing long into the night. PERFECT for fans of James Patterson, Mo Hayder, and Chris Carter.

 HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS AND REVIEW

 OMG This book made every creak in my house come to life and turn into someone waiting and ready to pounce on me, as I transformed with each page turned, from a reasonably calm and controlled woman to a nervous wreck! I wanted to hide behind the sofa but I wanted to take my book with me too because I couldn’t stop reading. This was going to be one hell of a read. I had only finished chapter 1.

I really took to this author straight away, although this isn’t his first book he was new to me. His writing had a crisp freshness about it, very much belonging to a modern society,  with that bravado of some of the characters that thought they were untouchable. The people that mouthed off then stood back and mocked a society that could do nothing about it. Now believe me no matter how obnoxious these people are you will feel compassion for them.

What starts as a prank on Twitter with a simple #BeMyKiller preceded by a statement such as bite me or blow me, soon becomes a game of cat and mouse. This cat really likes to play with its victims. Boy are there some new methods of killing here. I was gob smacked! It is all very gruesomely  described in some pretty gory fascinating and utterly inventive ways. A real mix of brutal crimes and unforgettable horror, your hair on end kinda writing.

Most of the story is set inside an old abandoned Fun House, which is creepy in itself, but it was also one of the murder scenes and it is surrounded woods. All makes for compelling reading. Throw in a little girl that gets nosey and a couple of pretty tough ladies and wow have you got a story. I think I may have to watch cartoons before bed. Yikes!
