About This Item

Long Island City, NY: Exhibit A/Angry Robot Ltd., 2013. First Edition. . Trade Paperback. Fine/Issued Without Jacket. The second book from Parker, a UK novelist, and his second dark psychological thriller ("Stop Me" was the first). "Scare Me" features wealthy UK businessman, Will Frost who learns from a website set up in his name with photos of the inside of his own house, as well as photos inside six other houses he's never seen before, that he and his family are targets in a lethal game with a serial killer. In the first of the six houses, a gruesome murder has been commited. Will is told his own family is in danger unless he visits the murder scene in Florida and recovers his daughter's bracelet from the corpse of one of the murder victims before the police arrive. And after that, there are five more houses to find in this worldwide scavenger hunt to save his family. First Printing, First Edition (complete numberline). About 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches, 361 pages with acknowledgments and four pages of publisher's ads at back. Pictorial wrappers with white lettering over a background in shades of blue showing the interior of an unfinished house. Wrappers and text are without discernable flaws -- no tears, no creasing or bumping. Complete, clean and unmarked. Not remaindered, not ex library. A collectable copy of a book already sold to a film company.

Synopsis

Richard Parker has been a professional TV writer for twenty-two years and started by submitting material to the BBC. After contributing to a wide variety of TV shows he became a head writer, script editor then producer. His first novel, Stop Me, was shortlisted for the prestigious UK Crime Writers Association John Creasey Dagger Award. He has had two short movies shot – Estranged and Sleep Tight (hitting festivals near you in 2012). More importantly, he has just finished penning a brand new thriller for publication. He has now moved from London to Salisbury but in no way hates London. He divides his time between reading, writing, cooking and visiting old English pubs. He is currently working on his third novel.
