The Long Dark Night

Over the years, since this book first came out, I have just read it now again for the 3rd time. It is still just as exciting, tense, and unnerving. It is excellently written and a real page-turner. Why someone hasn't snapped up the film rights to this is beyond me. I've passed it on to many other people and have yet to have anyone say it was less than I told them. RIP Mr. Hayes...thank you for an incredible contribution.

Fresh out of prison, Boyd has had 8 yrs. to work out his plan of revenge and payback - if the town thought the rape he had been convicted of had been bad, they haven't seen anything yet! This is a believable book with lots of tense suspense, nerve twisting horror, and brutal violence towards those on his "list" - hard to put down. It's easy to get involved with this story - it's written well and it's just one of those books that keep you on the edge of your seat. Worth reading more than once.
