by Terry M. West“Proprio come il titolo stesso del racconto, ‘I mostri non fanno più paura all’orario di chiusura’ - che avrebbe potuto essere cancellato -, si inscrive in una vicenda oscura e violenta ai confini della realtà.” Beauty in Ruins “Potresti amare qualcosa di così ripugnante e sgradevole da farti star male alla sola vista? Se ti fai un giro in una bettola chiamata la Taverna di Violet a Pasadena, ti sentirai fare questa domanda da Violet in persona. Ma qualsiasi cosa tu faccia, non risponderle. E non confessarle i tuoi peccati. Soprattutto dopo l’ora di chiusura.
I Nove Angeli

Quando a uno scrittore è chiesto di aiutare la polizia durante le indagini su un duplice omicidio identificando dei simboli occulti, che sono stati incisi sulle vittime, l'uomo sprofonda in un incubo ed è costretto a fuggire.

I suoi thriller sono abbastanza grintosi ma questo è un racconto avvincente e reso ancora più inquietante dal fatto che si basa sulla vita reale; Guardian
