Imagine being haunted by a ghost on a space station, where do you run!

This is Graeme Hague's 4th full length book that he has written yet it was his first book that was published.

From the depths of space to the vast Australian outback this story takes the reader on an often spine, neck and hair tingling roller coaster ride of twists and turns that will leave you not wanting to put the book down for the night, or even to turn off the light. It's not often that I am "scared" by a book but I will admit this one had me checking under the bed before getting out of it and I first read this book when I was about 23! Repeated readings are still wonderfully scary and even though I know what is going to happen I still get the chills.

I love horror books and am a huge fan of Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Richard Laymon and others, and I am so proud to have an Australian author who I truly believe is at home in the company of these others. If you enjoy these other authors I am sure you will LOVE Graeme Hague's work.

This is a very good book which eefctively encompasses the genres of Horror and Science Fiction. A body is cryogenically frozen and stored in a spaceship which nullifies the effect of the Earth's gravity on the cadaver. However soon things go awry as they usually do and where do you run to on a spaceship if you are being sought by a ghost? This is a very good book from an up and coming Australian writer and I eagerly await his next offerring.
