Paul Magrs recommends
The Leaping (2010)
Tom Fletcher
"A book that's stiff with foreboding and dread right from the start. . . . It's a literary, literate horror novel--and has a mordant, knowing, blackly ironic style to it. But it's relentless, too, in its avowed intention of scaring the life out of its readers, with everything it can throw at us."
