This book created a very thought-provoking story on human beings' selfish desires towards wealth and how far that desire will take them. This was a challenging read but a great addition to a horror collection!

A potential to turn into a 5 star if I continue to think about this book as much as I think I will. This made me stop and think. Massively. I loved this book and all the twists and turns. It wasn’t a book I expected to enjoy, but I really did. Picked this up by accident as I had just read “The Last Passenger” also by Will Dean. Another fantastic novel by him which gripped me.

I have never been so invested in a character. I wanted throw the book across the room and but also to finish it as quickly as  possible.
