Book Description:
Sherry's getting nervous, When Duane left for the 24-hour Speed-D-Mart, he said he'd be back in ten minutes. But that was twenty minutes ago, and that store isn't someplace you'd generally want to go to at this time of night. Then Sherry hears a noise from up the street. It could have been a car door slamming. Or a backfire. But it sounded like a gunshot. Sherry tells herself she has nothing to worry about. Still, she puts on her clothes and heads out into the night. She's afraid of what she'll find, but she has no idea of what's really in store for her. If she did, she would never have left the safety of her home. And she never would have met a madman named Toby Bones...

Pretty good book! Engrossing horror tale about a madman named Toby Bones and his harrowing encounters with an innocent named Sherry and the people they encounter along the way. Richard Laymon is a great author, any horror or suspense fan will love this one.

I was dissappointed in this book...in fact I ended up just skipping several pages at a time because it seemed like some scenes just dragggggged on...

Not the greatest Laymon effort. A quick paced read, but and but the story is a bit un-believable. The subjects have several obvious means to escape the fiend or they could simply call the police at any time. Still a fun book. I'll be reading more Laymon

I loved this book! I like most of laymons books but this one really had my heart thumping in places. One of my favorites of his...another one that kept me up late into the night.

Toby Bones is one very sick young man. Great plot involving a serial killer who stalks his favorite prey, baits a trap to reel her in, and then, once he's done with her, turns his predatory attentions to her completely oblivious family. The reader will have to ignore the fact that the female Toby has stalked (and done some pretty nasty things to) refuses to call the authorities despite SEVERAL opportunities to do so. Had she done so, it would have been a very short book indeed... Despite that irksome detail, Layman has written a truly scary tale that will have you checking your surroundings to make sure you're not being followed.

Fast paced thriller-packed with terror and it does keep you on the edge of your seat. Read it in one day-wish it could have been longer

Great thriller, had a hard time putting down. A page turner, will keep you going to find out what is going to happen next.
