Beskrivning
A tech genius builds a virtual world indisting uish able from reality and invites a trusted friend to step inside – with terrifying results. A woman too frightened to tell you her name – and when you’ve heard her story you’ll understand why. A billionaire who buys off death – at a terrible price. A desperate boy on the edge of a quarry at dusk, when a voice behind him says ‘Wait’ – and his life is transformed. Five of these seven ‘long’ short stories are brand new. Two date from the author’s years in Hollywood and have lost none of their sly, glittering menace. Together they offer exactly what Ambrose’s readers have come to expect from him – intrigue, wit, a deep curiosity about who we really are and a final twist that stays with you long after the last page.

Recensioner i media

‘Ambrose’s skill extends far beyond evoking horror... [he] dissects a killer’s view of himself, in the tradition of Thomas Harris’s Hannibal Lecter or of Bret Easton Ellis’s Patrick Bateman.’ Times Literary Supplement ‘Ambrose delights in constructing twist-riddled plots that question the nature of identity and reality.’ The Times ‘His books are like roller coaster rides... you wonder what the hell is going on, before you plummet into the abyss with an unstoppable momentum, fingernails gripping the seat.’  The Mirror‘Ambrose provides several hours of exhilarating diversion and a scary glimpse of scientific possibilities.’ Publishers Weekly
