The Woods Are Dark by Richard Laymon

3.0

Apparently when this book was first published it was heavily edited (some with the author's begrudging acceptance, and some as a surprise - how it is that okay?) - so the author's daughter worked to find the original, as her dad wanted it published - and this is that version. (that sums up the "Here's What Happened" at the beginning of the book - if you haven't read this book before - wait to read that bit until the end)

I enjoyed the story, it didn't really have a purpose - or much of a plot - reminded me a bit of the movies "The Hills have Eyes" or "Wrong Turn" - not much character development (though there is some). A nice diversion.
