"Everyone began talking at once, but Adam fixated on those flimsy wooden doors now hanging wide open. Outside, thick sheets of rain sliced through the darkness and assaulted the tarmac like machine-gun fire. A white face stated back at him from the car park. It had no expression."
I have been eyeing up books by this author for a while and finally took the plunge. Well, I'm happy to say I was not disappointed. This one was so good, right from page one. A brilliant read that is just one long chapter, which obviously meant I couldn't take breaks and had to read it all in one go. Right? Very excited to read more from this author.

Definitely a page turner. I read it all in one sitting and it was amazing. I laughed, I cried, I was scared; everything I love in a good book. I could definitely see this being turned into a movie.

A tale of alcoholism and its grasp on a group of those trying to kick the habit. As a storm rolls in and power is lost, they hunker down for a long night, only to be met with something more evil than their addictions and past.

Adam lost everything he has ever loved to alochol, and now this night, is no different. Struggling with his one year anniversary of sobriety, he attends his alcoholics anonymous group meeting, in hopes of support, or a reason "why" to continue. As the night progresses eerie things start to happen. Gunshots ringing out in the night, every car in the parking lot is dead, torrential rains, and a ghostly face in the window. When one group attendee makes a break for the car and returns in disrepair, the group has to think of their feet about next steps.

The night is full of a fast paced thrills, snap decisions, and of course some blood and gore. How are they goingto survive the night when every attempt at rescue is foiled. This story absolutely kept me on the edge of my seat for the entire time. There were a few spots where the writing was a tad cliche, but overall, I loved the style. I really felt immersed in the group. The characters had great variation and I either really felt for the character or, because it was written so well, I was hoping that the character was the next to be offed.

Was hoping for a bit more horror than thriller but this was still a good fast paced read.
