Strangers


David Moody - 2014
    The bodies of the dead – savagely mutilated, unspeakably defiled – are piling up with terrifying speed.

And that is some recommendation.” —London Lite“Moody has the power to make the most mundane and ordinary characters interesting and believable, and is reminiscent of Stephen King at his finest.” —Shadowlocked"Moody is as imaginative as Barker, as compulsory as King, and as addictive as Palahniuk." —Scream the Horror Magazine
