I've always been a Stephen King fan. In fact, I think he ruined it for me enjoying many other stories of this genre because none other was just the same. Until now. It's been a long time since I've read such a thought provoking journey into the mind of a psycho. Like King, Gunus knows how to draw you in and leave you jumping at noises in the night. 

Making the heroine a female was not only empowering but refreshing. as well. I hope to hear more about her in the future. Gunhus enter weaved her story beautifully into Arnie's and she played the perfect next victim. Smart, Beautiful and strong; she is everything Arnie is not. In the end, she has the opportunity to show this in more then one way. 

If you enjoy the horror genre you are in for a treat!

Another fantastic thriller from Gunhus. This story had me guessing from the get go. I found my self questioning who to believe and what was really real. With Jack's past there were times when he would question himself and it would make me wonder. When Lonetree entered the story I questioned him as well. The actions of the police department, head doctors, and other predominate members of the small town the Tremont family has recently moved to, added to the suspension. 

I was literally hanging on to the edge of my seat up until the very end. I. LOVED. EVERY. MINUTE. OF. IT..!
