Paralysed
Matt Shaw - 2015
There is gore. There is bad language. There are scenes of a sexual nature. But hidden underneath it all is also a chilling story. Please do not purchase this book if you are easily shocked, disgusted or offended. This book is not for you. "She told me he is dying but it's not true. It looks bad, I get that. But he will be okay. He doesn't need a hospital. Even if he did - I can't take him to one. It would be the end of the line for both of us; back to prison with a one-way ticket. He'll be okay. He just needs the right motivation. And she is just that. She is just what the doctor ordered. She's pretty, she's intelligent and - whether she wants it or not - she is all his. He just needs to move. Move and claim what is his. Do with her as he pleases. Yes, the perfect motivation." PARALYSED is the new extreme horror from Matt Shaw (Sick B*stards, PORN, WHORE and Some Kind of Cu*t). Continuing with his Black Cover series, pushing boundaries of decency, Matt Shaw takes you on a journey with a serial killer and his accomplice, Dennis - a man who'll do absolutely anything for his broken master.
