Book Reviews of Fright (Hard Case Crime)
Book Review: A knock out
Summary: 5 Stars
Fright is a terrific book. Cornell Woorich managed to combine a thriller with sheer pyschological horror. It is one of the most twisted and downright disturbing things I've ever read and had got to be the most tragic thing Hard Case Crime has published yet.
Press Marshall is a lucky boy. He's handsome, smart, got a good job that is only going to get better and he's going to marry the beautiful, elegant and rich Marjorie. And then he messes up and everything goes horribly, irrevocably wrong. By the time the book is over Press has snuffed out lives, destroyed his mental health, turned Marjorie's adoration into disgust and fear and transforms himself into a monster.
Watching Press and Marjorie descend into hell is like a fast paced roller coater. I did not put this book down once I got into it and the ending is like a smack upside the head. I'm going in search of more Cornell Woolrich books.
