EAT THE DARK is an intensely rich and deeply satisfying survival
horror.
Serial killer Frank Snow is transported to Tanglewood
Memorial Hospital for an emergency brain scan. Accompanied by a police escort and
a handful of hospital staff for the MRI he finds himself in the bowels of a
near fully evacuated hospital as Tanglewood officially closes its doors with
Snow, the last patient.
MRI Technician Mike Hughes is on hand to assist Tanglewoods
last and most famous patient undergo the final form of healthcare provided at
the decommissioned facility. He’s soon visited by his wife and young son who
show unexpectedly – it’s a surprise that could end in tears and bloodshed as
Snow escapes the shackles that so tentatively corrupted his free will allowing
him to once more bathe in the blood of his victims in the darkened halls of
Tanglewood.
Terror at every turn, heart pounding suspense in every
chapter, fear and violence omnipresent throughout – EAT THE DARK is a great
fast paced supernatural/survival horror.
Author Joe Schreiber encapsulates all that consists of
nightmares – ghosts, serial killers, claustrophobia, thick dark, and the unexplained,
into a tightly wound bundle of madness. Despite having read EAT THE DARK previously,
I still couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.
