Who says you have to wait until October to get your scare on?

The four storytelling girls of Lockwood Orphanage are back for another night of bone-rolling and spine-tingling tales in the second book of the WICKED DEAD series, SNARED.

SNARED follows the adventures of sixteen-year-old Lindsay as she's dragged on a family vacation to Redlands Beach by her parents. It's there she meets the mysterious hottie next door named Mark and his ultra-strict "guardians," Doug and Jack. Mesmerized by his good looks and horrified by his prison-like living conditions, Lindsay vows to help Mark escape.

Someone forgot to tell her, no good deed goes unpunished...

SNARED is exactly the kind of book I would have read as a teen. It's a great, one-sitting, light-gore horror novel that serves one purpose: entertainment. Anyone looking for greater truths or deeper meaning should probably skip this one, but if you want a night of "campfire" horror fare, this is a must-read.
