Publisher Description
This book brings you to the Eastern Maine town of Freeport. This small village, the location of a large
outdoor products and clothing manufacture and sporting items, has become a major shopping destination during the year. Highly visible during the late fall and early winter days. The ride on the rails provides an entirely different exposure to the wonderful colors from the hardwood forests. Yes, the Lobster are excellent! You can east Lobster anyway you can think, even on a hoagie bun. The team of Louisiana undercover investigators, Remy Guidry and Johnny Vincent has received the assignment to curtail a potential heist of large amounts of money during the shopping season at the Freeport Village Station. Enjoy.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Swedish author Lindqvist's debut, a horror novel, offers few twists that won't already be familiar to readers of modern vampire fiction. Oskar, a much bullied 12-year-old schoolboy living in a Stockholm suburb, notices that his next-door neighbor, Eli, has some peculiar traits: Eli only comes out at night, smells like death warmed over and is of ambiguous gender. Eventually, Eli reveals he's a vampire who survives by feeding off the neighborhood lowlifes. Occasionally, his bite accidentally turns victims into undeads who, unaware of their vampirization, go on rampages that end in spectacularly gruesome fates. As sweet as the pure and wholesome friendship between Oskar and Eli may be, it's the gory set pieces that propel the predictable plot.
