OverviewA dark and dirty horror novel from David Moody, author of HATER and AUTUMN Either there's a serial killer loose in Thussock, or something far worse... A spate of brutal murders occur in and around the small town of Thussock. The bodies of the dead - savagely mutilated, unspeakably defiled - are piling up with terrifying speed. There are no apparent motives and no obvious connections between the victims, but the killings only began when Scott Griffiths and his family arrived in Thussock... In his evocation of fear and unease and the speed with which he grips you, he brings to mind old Brit horror writer James Herbert. And that is some recommendation. -London Lite Moody has the power to make the most mundane and ordinary characters interesting and believable, and is reminiscent of Stephen King at his finest. -Shadowlocked Moody is as imaginative as Barker, as compulsory as King, and as addictive as Palahniuk. -Scream the Horror Magazine Full Product DetailsAuthor: David MoodyPublisher: Infected Books Imprint: Infected Books Dimensions: Width: 12.70cm , Height: 1.70cm , Length: 20.30cm Weight: 0.319kg ISBN: 9780957656345ISBN 10: 0957656343 Pages: 290 Publication Date: 01 December 2014 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.

It's addictive reading from start to finish. And it proves once and for all that there's a hell of a lot more to Moody than the end of the world. -DLS Reviews Strangers is easily Moody's best work to date, a dark, disturbing and visceral book that gives him a legitimate claim to the title of Britain's Best Living Horror Author that was left vacant by James Herbert's untimely death. -This is Horror If you love a story that gets into the darkness of the human soul, you will love Strangers. 5/5 -2BookLovers Reviews Author InformationDAVID MOODY first released HATER in 2006 and, without an agent, sold the film rights for the novel to Mark Johnson (producer, Breaking Bad) and Guillermo Del Toro (director, The Shape of Water, Pan's Labyrinth). Moody's seminal zombie novel AUTUMN was made into an (admittedly terrible) movie starring Dexter Fletcher and David Carradine. He has an unhealthy fascination with the end of the world and likes to write books about ordinary folks going through absolute hell. With the publication of a new series of Autumn and Hater stories, Moody has furthered his reputation as a writer of suspense-laced SF/horror, and farther out genre books of all description.
