Wow. This was good but WAY messed up... Mo Hayder is a strange, strange woman. I did enjoy reading this, but part of the mystery was given away by reading the acknowledgments. And there were definite hints to the ending twist... it does seem to beg for a sequel, as there were a few loose ends (particularly how the very end worked out...) but, all in all, I really enjoyed reading this. I am, however, at a total loss as to what to read next, though I will definitely keep an eye for more of this woman's work.

I couldn't put this book down and don't know why it only has 3 and a half stars. I thought it was the best. Creepy, horrific, and extremely well written.

A professional skeptic goes to Pig Island to verify or not the authenticity of a video capture of a humanoid with a tail... the Devil himself? Some grotesque, mostly psychological.
