Book Description

Publication Date: 12 May 2011

You wake up in a strange room on a bed covered in blood.

You have no idea how you got there.

Beside you is a dead girl. Your girlfriend.

The phone rings, and a voice tells you to press play on the room's DVD machine.

The film shows you killing your girlfriend. Then you're told to go to an address in East London where you're to deliver a briefcase and await further instructions.

There's no way out.

If you're to survive the next 24 hours, you must find out who killed your girlfriend, and why. Before they come for you too...

4.0 out of 5 stars Severed 13 Jun 2009
By book fan VINE™ VOICE
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I've just finished reading this and I couldn't put it down,none stop action that never lets up. I would place Simon Kernick somewhere between Lee Child and Harlen Coban for the writing style. The story starts with Tyler waking up in bed with the headless corpse of his girl friend next to him with no idea of where he is or any of the events leading up to this and a tape is there waiting for him which shows that he is the one who killed her. This seems impossible to him because he had no reason to kill her and he was madly in love with her too. So begins a frantic race over the next twenty four hours to find out what's really going on,the words just fly off the page and you won't be able to read them fast enough as Tyler finds he has been set up for murder, from the first page to the last the tale moves with the momentum of a runaway train with thrills and plenty of violence along the way. With not one wasted word and chapters that blend seamlessly into each other this book is a pure adrenalin rush I totally loved it and would recommend it to any fan of thrillers. Great entertainment.

4.0 out of 5 stars Faster Than The Speed Of Light! 9 April 2009
By Beans
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I started reading this and from the very first page found it almost impossible to put down. The graphic descriptions mean it's not a book for everyone, but certainly if you like real-life gangster stories with plenty of twists and turns and a fast pace you will enjoy this book. Although the ending was fairly tame in comparison to the rest of the plot I felt it worked extremely well. I've just purchased two more of Simon Kernick's books and am hoping they're as good as this one.
