Townhouse by Brian Rowe

If you didn't know already, I'm a huge fan of horror. I go crazy for new horror stories.
This book was certainly full of what I love most about horror. It was so chocked full of suspense it was one I couldn't put down at times. I was entirely engrossed it was so gripping.
It was surprising too. The villain wasn't clear until actually revealed which kept me guessing which I always like in a story.
Another thing I always like in a story - flawed protagonists! Sara has her faults and she's not exactly likeable at the start but that soon changes throughout the novel.
I also appreciate authors of horror novels that aren't afraid of throwing as much gore at readers as possible. This is definitely not a read to finish whilst eating or just before sleeping!
Overall I recommend this book to fans of the horror genre. It was a great read.
