I've just finished this - anyone else read it? It's really odd but I read it in no time and I think I liked it (if that makes sense!). It's by the same author as The Loney. A very strange book!

Loved the Loney, but it was a bit disturbing! Will look this up Smile

This one is pretty disturbing too!

Worth it just for the last line ..... although I thought the author was in a bit of a hurry to get there !

dontslamit - I read the last page when I first picked it up (terrible habit) and thought WTF so had to find out how it got to that! I keep thinking about it so I think I liked it.

It is a memorable book, that’s for sure.

I like this author very much. After The Loney he wrote ‘Devil’s Day’ - very Wicker Man-ish. I love discovering an author when they haven’t written much yet because I can read everything they’ve written, as it’s released.
