Burial by Neil Cross
Feb. 2nd, 2009 01:53 pmThe Blurb On The Back:
Can your guiltiest secret ever be buried?
Nathan has never been able to forget the worst night of his life: the party that led to the sudden, shocking disappearance of a young woman. Only he and Bob, an old acquaintance, know what really happened and they have resolved to keep it that way. But one rainy night, years later, Bob appears at Nathan's door with terrifying news, and old wounds are suddenly reopened, threatening to tear Nathan's whole world apart. Because Nathan has his own secrets now. Secrets that could destroy everything he has fought to build. And maybe Bob doesn't realise just how far Nathan will go to protect them ...
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
Disappointing thriller chiller that fails to thrill and fails to chill. Unsympathetic and unconvincing characterisation together with well-sign posted plot twists fail make for a ho-hum story that fails to hold the interest.
