Book Description
'One of the few true masters of the horror genre' James Herbert - author of Others.
Product Description
It is said that a mirror can trap a person's soul...
Martin Williams is a broke, two-bit screenwriter living in Hollywood, but when he finds the very mirror that once hung in the house of a murdered 1930s child star, he happily spends all he has on it. He has long obsessed over the tragic story of Boofuls, a beautiful and successful actor who was slaughtered and dismembered by his grandmother.
However, he soon discovers that this dream buy is in fact a living nightmare; the mirror was not only in Boofuls house, but witness to the death of this blond-haired and angelic child, which in turn has created a horrific and devastating portal to a hellish parallel universe. So when Martin's landlord loses his grandson it is soon apparent that the mirror is responsible. But if a little boy has gone into the mirror, what on earth is going to come out?

Format:Hardcover
This was the very first Masterton book I ever read and it is still my favourite. Not only is it gripping from beginning to end, but the plot itself leaves you hanging of every page in anticipation of whats going to, or could possibly, happen next. Focusing on a mirror which "witnessed" an horrific murder, and then some 60 years later when the mirror decides the time is right to show what is behind it, resulting in an all too believable plot of demonic resurrection, this book is both terrifying and addictive.

This was the very first Masterton book I have ever read, too, and my favorite as well. Since then I have read dozens of his books, most of which are great as well, but this one really kept me awake for many nights. It is written very vividly and really is beliveable enough to make the reader look at mirrors in a different way than before. :)
If you are not familiar with Graham Masterton, this is the book to start your journey. It is a path that you will have trouble in getting off, believe me.

Format:Paperback
Struggling Hollywood script-writer, Martin Williams' dream is to never have to pen another episode of The A-Team and get his musical about 1930's child protege 'Boofuls' produced. His obsession leads him to buy a mirror - the very mirror in fact that was hangining in the room where Boofuls was brutally murdered.
When Boofuls suddenly steps out of his mirror into the real world, Martin slowly becomes submerged in something bigger than deadlines and antagonising agents - forcing him to look beyond the looking glass and face the most Evil Force of all.

This book took a while to really get into
However when it finally kicked in it was a fun ride. I liked Pariah more but I can honestly say it was not that bad.

upon reflection i'd say it was a bland book
You might not think this is a fair review because i'd only read halfway, but I take the view that a book shouldn't be boring you through the majority of it's pages while it drags... Read more

Bought this book for my husband, and he said this was a very very good story, one that kept you reading.

not what I expected
From the praise evident in these reviews, I was expecting something much, much better. From the first page I felt let down by the characterisation and the unambitious approach to... Read more

Thrilling to the end....
This book is definitely one of my favourite Masterton books. I had always been a strong Richard Laymon fan, but following the downward spiral the books penned under his name have... Read more
