I Am Behind You by John Ajvide Lindqvist
Oct. 4th, 2017 10:22 pmThe Blurb On The Back:
You thought you had put your worst mistake behind you.
It’s still there.
Molly wakes her mother to go to the toilet. The campsite is strangely blank. The toilet block has gone. Everything else has gone too. This is a place with no sun. No god.
Just four families remain. Each has done something to bring them here - each denies they deserve it. Until they see what's coming over the horizon, moving irrevocably towards them. Their worst mistake. Their darkest fear.
And for just one of them, their homecoming.
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
John Ajvide Lindqvist’s horror novel (the first in a trilogy and translated from Swedish by Marlaine Delargy) is a disquieting, creepy affair that’s built around slightly generic but still well drawn characters and even though there’s no real explanation for what’s happening and the resolution is vague, I was gripped enough to want to read the sequel when it’s released.
I AM BEHIND YOU was released in the United Kingdom on 7th September 2017. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the ARC of this book.
