Product Description

Review
'Shaun Hutson is an expert in the art of keeping the reader turning the pages' - TIME OUT

Shaun Hutson is one of the finest thriller writers around today with a legion of fans eagerly awaiting his next book. Purity and Hybrid swiftly became classics but I fear his fans may be a little disappointed this time round. In Hell to Pay, about a serial killer whose MO involves overdosing the young victim with heroin, Hutson seems to have fallen for all the cliches as well as presenting a story so extraordinary it wouldn't be out of place on Channel 5. Bodies turn up in reservoirs; overworked coppers furrow their brows; loan sharks close on down and outs Nikki and Jeff; and Roma and David stay together for the sake of their terrifying sick daughter. Somehow the author manages to weave the disparate strands together into a story that culminates, of course, in a collision at which point there will be...Hell to Pay! (Kirkus UK)

1.0 out of 5 stars Dismal, 19 Jan 2004

By	J. Watson - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Hell to Pay (Hardcover)

This is a novel entirely devoid of sympathetic characters. It has as the basis of its minimal plot a little girl with an invented and medically implausible (to say the least!) disease, for which Hutson provides only the sketchiest mumbo-jumbo of a justification. Gratuitous sex scenes are there for titillation and add nothing to the story. The "poetic justice" ending is obvious from halfway through the novel, and the unlovely characters lumber towards the final scene without the reader's empathy or even interest. Hutson has done better than this; don't waste your money.

2.0 out of 5 stars Shaun has faultered on this last effort, 3 Nov 2003

By	Ms. S. Lee "Enigma" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Hell to Pay (Hardcover)

I own every book written by Shaun.
Usually the book is never put down and is always an exciting read right to the very end with sweaty palms etc.
For some reason I feel Shaun lost his way a little....the ending is very poor to say the least. I wont tell you the ending for those of you still reading it...all I can say is not up to the usual brilliant exciting read.
What a disappointment, lets hope the next one is better and this is just a lapse

2.0 out of 5 stars Not up to the usual high standard, 18 Aug 2003

By	CVH "All Hope is Gone" (England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hell to Pay (Hardcover)

I am a great fan of SH but I was disapointed by this novel,
usually I cant put his books down but this time all I wanted to do was put it down.
So similar to some of his other work easy to work out and what was going to happen next .
shame
