Grey Skies
Grey Skies by William Becker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A man, Roman, a dead nun and no clue as to what happened to her.
This was my first read by the author and I have to tell you it makes me wonder what goes on his mind. This story is delivered with such descriptive detail that you are almost completely immersed into this frightening world. With our hero not knowing why a friend of his ex-wife has been murdered, he initially decides to bury her. However, the weather prompts him to just put her in his trunk and take her home. This is where the story takes us a down the rabbit hole of fear. There are action sequences and a mix of flashbacks that could have been hallucinations. The story has a controlled chaotic feel to it. I could not read it in one sitting only because I had to read it early enough during the day so that I could sleep at night. Yeah, I'm not afraid to admit that I was freaked the hell out. This author is 18yrs old and delivered a psychological, twisted horror. I want to see what else he has up his sleeve and yet I don't.
I believe fans who are looking for something new in horror will love this book. As for me, I 'm going to go read something syrupy sweet and romantic to clear my mind. Mr. Becker congratulations.
