Horrifying!

Plank Children is such a fantastic and horrifying reading experience. In it, Miles lost his nephew in a car accident last year. Yet somehow he saw an updated photo of him on Facebook. Confused, he sets out to investigate and is then thrown into a world of madness and evil children.

Schutz is a master at building tension and delivering the creepiness. Plank Children reminds me of movies taking place in old and haunted asylums or boardinghouses. The atmosphere is dark, a whirlwind of dread and horror, the characters fully realized. It’s a labyrinthine nightmare of horrors that will not disappoint. I had a lot of fun reading Plank Children and highly recommend it.
