Product Description

Product Description

It’s been ten years since Geri Paulson’s suicide tore her away from her five closest friends and destroyed their friendship. Now her friends’ questions about her death will be answered. They’ve returned to their hometown in a desperate attempt to find out the truth of why she killed herself. But something more than grief haunts them. Geri has returned. And she’s not alone.

Trapped in a nightmare version of their town, Geri’s friends must run, hide, and kill to uncover the truth behind the terrible secret she kept from them. If they succeed, then they might have a chance against the evil that destroyed Geri. They might be able to bury it before it buries them.

But if they fail, Geri’s hell will be their new home.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Cracking Read 2 Aug 2012
By David Goody
Format:Kindle Edition
It would be easy to lazily categorize this book as horror or fantasy, but at it's core it is a human drama about how friendships are stretched and yet still bind us across the years. Just as importantly it's a real page turner that will keep making you say "OK, one more chapter and then I'll put it down".

4.0 out of 5 stars good storytelling is worth its weight in gold 13 Mar 2012
By Little Ershin
Format:Kindle Edition
I don't read horror all that often because I find writers have a tendency to sacrifice storytelling for shocks. So it was very refreshing to see my expectations subverted. One thing Luke Walker does extremely well is tell a story. And I don't just mean beginning-middle-end, I mean all the small details that make the world and its inhabitants come alive, building a sense of paranoia so tangible that you find yourself peeking over your shoulder just in case you start seeing things too. He's also good at natural dialogue, which is a good thing as The Red Girl can be dialogue-intensive - not a bad thing, since the characters are what drives the story.

A cracking debut from an up-and-coming British talent. You could do much worse than give this a shot. My only gripe - small though it may be - is that I had to read it on my laptop as I don't own an e-reader, so I ended up with slightly sore eyes. I'd have loved a print edition. It was well worth the eye strain, mind you.

5.0 out of 5 stars For readers who enjoy smart horror 9 Mar 2012
By Keith Pyeatt
Format:Kindle Edition
The Red Girl is a great read for those of us who enjoy atmospheric horror with in-depth characterization. The main characters are pulled into a strange parallel world where the sun never shines. Everything they remember is there, but nothing is the same, and it's a dangerous, unpredictable place that gets more dangerous and unpredictable every page. Each character is unique and likable in different ways, and they each must all face their own demons -- internal ones and literal ones.

The concept is clever and well developed. The pace is fast but not too fast. The characterization is deep but not exhausting. The answers are always elusive, just as they should be, until the end. The writing is skillful and a pleasure to read.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this novel.
