“AUGUST’S EYES – by Glenn Rolfe – The Ending, My Heart!
Social Worker John Colby grew up in Spears Corner, Maine, a seemingly quiet town that just so happens to be abundant with graveyards—a serial killer's sinister sadistic playground.
When John’s nights are plagued with horrible dreams that seep into reality, his wife, Sarah, convinces him to see a therapist that enables him to confront the past, one his mind has worked so hard to forget.
AUGUST’S EYES is a Dark Horror novel equated with Jack Ketchum’s books; though I haven't read his work yet, I am familiar with the premise.
Rolfe does an excellent job setting up the story through the Prologue, just enough to keep the reader in the know as we bear witness to John’s past and how it ties into the present.
If you’re not a fan of Dark Horror, I would say this book may not be for you, but if you are, then I say buckle up—You’re in for one h*ll of a ride!
Thank you, NetGalley and Flame Tree Press, for providing me with an eBook of AUGUST’S EYES at the request of an honest review.”
