Product Description:
In Beverly Hills a businessman slaughters his entire family and leaves behind a video of the massacre and a cryptic message: 'this is where it begins.' Sure enough, it is only the beginning. Children everywhere are either being killed or are disappearing. Social worker Carrie Daniels wants to know why. God help her when she finds out.

Being a fan of most genres of literature and a high school English teacher, I try to read as many authors as I can to have a wide range of knowledge. I consider myself a huge horror fan and this was my second book by this author.
I can't really recommend this book but I wouldn't say it was a waste of my time. It took me about 100 pages to start getting into it and after that time was invested, I thought it moved quickly and kept my interest. I liked the Brain and Carrie characters. I hated Andrew though (I guess that's good writing).
This book really isn't scary so much as it is disturbing. From the fathers killing their sons at the beginning to the "organic Milk" farm, it was pretty gross (again possibly because of good writing).
I wouldn't recommend it to my high school students to read, or my son for that matter who I give most of my books to read afterward.
Last note: If I was a distant relative of John Sutter, I would sue! :)

So I picked this up at a bookstore that was going out of buisness having had the author recommended to me. I just happened to pick this one up very first and was intrigued by the description on the back. It is terrible beyond description even in terms of crappy popular fiction. It is utter nonsense and manages not one scare or even a moment of suspense. Complete junk.

If this was a horror novel, it only brings sorrow;
If this was a porn novel, it was too gross to be one;
If this was a science fiction, they are much more room for imagination;
If this was Bentley Little, it was too "Little" in terms of creativity.
From the start, this was designed to end in a poor manner. No twists, no shocks, no surprises.
The only thing which saves it from a 1 star rating is that because this is Bentley Little after all.
No matter how suck the story line is, you can still sense that it is Mr Little writing and that certainly helps.

I am generally a huge fan of Bentley Little his stories are generally entertaining and at times when they are a bit more subdued they have much more depth then people give him credit for (The ignored).
I felt this novel was so grotesque and disgusting, it was only that, the story was ludicrous, the ending was just plain stupid and everything in between was completely un-entertaining. The bloody and violent scenes were disgusting but it seemed as though they were gross just for the sake of being gross.
This has got to be the worse story line he's ever had, and this comes from a Little fan!
anyway pick it up at your own risk.

I am a huge Bentley Little fan. I have everything he has ever written. This new book was good, it's not my favorite and he has definatly done better, but it's worth the read. It has it's scary, disgusting, make you want to cringe moments (which every bentley book has) but the ending left just a little to be desired. He's still a genius though, and I'll continue to read whatever he puts out.l
