This was my first Richard Laymon book and I am sooo glad to have found such an awesome horror writer. Ive recently ordered many of his novels and thought Id start with this one. I loved it. The story had me caring about the characters, talking out loud to them, like ,"Dont go over there..Dont do that.." The story is a very unique one and I didn't realize the killer till way late into the book, it kept me on my toes and I read late into the evening, a true page turner. Not gruesome, not really bloody or anything at all. Just a great story all around.
