I wasnt surprised to learn that this was written 25 yes ago. the absence of cellphones, etc was a giveaway. the story was fairly concise and marginally plausible. overall it was quite enjoyable
the plot wasn’t so outlandish as his recent novels.
I like Bentley hill but have never considered his books in the horror genre due to the absurd plot lines. this is what makes his stories entertaining however. his recent novels fit more in the realm of dark comedy
