I constantly found myself at points throughout the day when I wasn’t reading, thinking of the characters and how they would deal with the looming pressures. I was so unsettled at points that I even felt the tingling of fear when walking past windows, my hair standing on end when I was left alone, and in my brain thinking of The Watchers.

You can't see them. But they can see you.
This forest isn't charted on any map. Every car breaks down at its treeline. Mina's is no different. Left stranded, she is forced into the dark woodland only to find a woman shouting, urging Mina to run to a concrete bunker. As the door slams behind her, the building is besieged by screams.
Mina finds herself in a room with a wall of glass, and an electric light that activates at nightfall, when the Watchers…
I really enjoyed how this book takes a more factual approach. Always keen to learn more about the human body and the dark acts humans carry out on each other, I was enthralled by the stories Sue tells of real-world murders and deaths.
Although factual, I found it fascinating just how much emotion I felt reading Sue’s book. I can’t deny that I was choked up at quite a few points.

I love just how f**ked up this book is (pardon my language). I’m a huge horror fan, knowing Clive Barker as one of the legends of the genre I was very pleased to find out how much he didn’t hold back in this book.
I’ve watched many movies and read many books and this will forever be the book that I remember frowning, squinting and retorting in disgust at while also being unable to put it down. I wouldn’t want to guess how many times I blurted out “what the...” while reading this book.

A dark, violent story about Matt, a solicitor suffering the inferiority of this world. Long has he fantasized of acting out his macabre feelings, taking sharp and blunt instruments alike to unravel the meat sacks that are his frustrations in his world. Always knowing that he was better than people, Matt struggles to contain his growing rage. A beast is growing inside him, a massacre waiting to happen, a bloodbath that excites him.
Another thing grows inside him though, something more physical, something blurry at the edge of his psyche. Unaware, it drains him of his humanity, fueling his lizard brain and pouring gasoline on his darkest thoughts. Is this growth the cause of his murderous intent? Is it something he should get looked at?
