"This is what true horror is meant to be, quiet and thoughtful, an eerie sense of something lurking just ahead in your path with no way of escape." - Eric J Guignard
"Boy in the Box is a heart-stopping tale that will keep you up at night because every turn of the page is heavy with anticipation and suspense. Marc Fitch drops the reader into a world in which past sins echo into the present and the search for inner calm involves a treacherous climb through mountains that have a long memory. This is a story you won t forget." - J J Hensley
"Marc E. Fitch s excellent novel, Boy in the Box, is like taking a sideways glance at the normal world and seeing the nightmares that sneak in from the periphery. A tale of ordinary lives sent spiraling out of control in this case as the result of an incident involving friends on a hunting trip Fitch creates a moody, muscular read that holds on with white knuckles until the last page. A book to be read and read again." - Gregory L Norris
