Description
Dead Ringers by Christopher Golden - author of Snowblind and Tin Men - will thrill fans of Dean Koontz, Peter Straub and Stephen King - and chill them to the bone. Here is a haunted house novel with a deadly new spin. When Tess Devlin bumps into her ex-husband, she's furious that he seems not to know her. And then Frank Lindbergh is attacked by an intruder in his home ... an intruder who wears Frank's face. In the heart of the city, a mansion stands on a hill and behind its wrought-iron fence an evil force is at work, leaving everyone who comes near it hysterical with fear. But the real terror lies inside the house. Tess and Frank have no choice but to confront a mistake made years ago. A mistake that summoned an ancient evil ... and means even their own reflections could kill them.

ReviewsSNOWBLIND is instantly involving and deeply scary. Throw away all those old "it was a dark and stormy night" novels; this one is the real deal As military robots proliferate, we have all wondered whether the wealthy will use them to dominate those with fewer resources. Fascinating and thrilling, Tin Men imagines a future in which the playing field is suddenly and violently levelled Golden is one of the most hard-working, smartest, and talented writers of his generation ... Everything he writes glows with imagination An evocative tale of the possible and the probable that takes a wild walk on the perilous side. Along the way we get a top-of-the-line lesson in what may actually be in store for us one day. You're going to love this thrilling, taut drama A good horror novel needs to be a good novel first, with a strong plot, interesting characters, and vivid and evocative writing. Golden delivers all of that
