As with all of Bentley Little's books, it starts out great and grabs you right away. The story has great build up and tension but the ending is always anticlimatic.

This book starts off with a great premise and grabs you right away. The story gets a little too convoluted and has an ending that I thought could've been better. HOWEVER if you like horror stories in the same vein as Stephen King, then this book IS for you.

PBS has made me a Bentley Little fan. This is probably the third or fourth of his books I've read and I came away a little disappointed. Even witches and the walking dead couldn't keep me interested for a long read. The flashbacks were by far the best parts of the book.

Bentley Little is not for everybody. This was a good book in the way of you have no idea what is happening because it could be anything sort of way.

It begins in a small Southwestern twon. Then it spreads. Across the country a series of strange deaths have overtaken the living. And a stranger compulsion has overtaken the dead.

In a travesty of life they drift with bizarre purpose toward an unknown destination. The walkers have become an obsession for investigator Miles Huerdeen. His father is one of them.

Now, lured into the shadow of the restless dead, Miles is a step closer to a secret as old as time...to a reality as dark as hell. For Miles is following them into the deep end of an unfathomable nightmare.
