Warhol's Prophecy [Abridged, Audiobook] [Hardcover]

Hutson, like his compatriot James Herbert, has developed considerably beyond the brief and unambitious grisly thrillers of his early years. This adroit piece (a spin on Andy Warhol's famous remark that everyone will be famous for 15 minutes) has a mother panicking when her five-year-old daughter goes missing in a crowded shopping centre. Her relief when her daughter is safely returned by Adam, an attractive young man, turns into affection as she is tempted into an affair. But is Adam too good to be true? And is he responsible for the vandalism committed against her home and family - or is someone else seeking violent revenge? The narrative spirals towards a tensely rendered climax of menace and death. (Kirkus UK) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

"Everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes," said Andy Warhol. And fame is something certain people will go to any lengths to achieve: whether to be revered or reviled, the lure of notoriety is strong for those lacking it. When five-year-old Becky goes missing in a crowded shopping centre, her mother's worst nightmare has come true. But Hailey Gibson's nightmares are just beginning. After Becky is safely returned by Adam Walker, Hailey finds her initial gratitude turning to something else. With her marriage close to ruins, she is tempted to begin an affair with this likeable newcomer. Besides, Hailey wants revenge against her husband and his mistress. And Walker seems willing - only too happy to please. But maybe he has his own agenda? As she wisely ends their budding relationship, Hailey begins to wonder if Walker could be behind the acts of vandalism committed against her home and family. Or is someone else seeking revenge, who she has not yet encountered? When petty harassment turns to open violence, Hailey finds herself caught in a spiralling vortex of suffering and death . . . until the shattering truth forces her to make the the most horrendous decision of her life. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
