The Cove Hotel - Darren Barker - Bog

"I'm Emma Cummings and I'm a librarian." Emma likes books and films, good food and uninterrupted sleep. She has treated herself, booking into a luxurious small family run hotel by the sea, isolated and exclusive. She's tired and stressed and has promised herself a complete break from the demands of her job, her colleagues and her dysfunctional family. She's after peace and tranquillity, a chance to indulge in great books, great food and great weather. The hotel is all she hoped for, spotless, comfortable and with a spectacular sea view from her room. The food doesn't disappoint either, but almost from the start her fellow guests irritate her by refusing to leave her alone, despite her obvious preference for her own company. Irritation soon grows into anger, and after a misunderstanding with the noisy libidinous swingers in the next room, Emma really loses her cool. Although she finally deals with the lecherous pair and retreats back to her sanctuary, she finds that she has to become progressively more ingenious to achieve the peace and quiet that she craves. There's no romance on this holiday. Once again, Darren Barker serves up a blood-soaked nightmare in the most innocuous of settings. In turns horrific, hideous and hilarious, this is an ideal book for the holiday loving horror fan. Just don't let anyone interrupt your reading.
