Davis Grubb's The Night of the Hunter remains the gold standard of southern noir. Grubb's unforgettably charismatic and psychopathic villain, Harry Powell, still has the power to flood your twenty-first century dreams with terror. -- Richard Price A thriller which commands one's frozen attention. It is also a work of beauty and power and astonishing verbal magic. * New York Times *
