Reprieve - the safe word you need if you're going to play the game! 1997 and to win the big bucks you need to complete the escape room course but what horrors are waiting for you inside?
From the start, this book had me gripped, the courtroom scenes recalling the events of 1997 and then the shift back to when the contestants took part.
James Han Mattson is a new literary talent who has created a level of suspense and detail in his first novel that is sure to be a winner with those that like their horror realistic.
The narrative explores so many topics including prejudice, racism, LGBTQ, flawed characters, messed up lives, fear, love, hope and hate all wrapped up in a nasty, terrifying game where the contestants have come together from various diverse backgrounds.
Reprieve - I'm going to get out and say no more - you need to read this book!
