The Dead Man Face of Evil by Lee Goldberg and William Rabkin

He thought his life was over when his young wife died from cancer.  Then he got caught in an avalanche and really knew it was done.  But then he woke up...


Lee Goldberg provided me with an ePub to review this story (thank you).


This is the first in a series of horror stories that will have you sitting up straight in your chair as you read along.  Matt is just a normal young man who has lost his wife and his way in the world.


He hesitantly starts dating again and agrees to go skiing with Rachel.  She's an excellent skiier and he enjoys watching her form and skill.  Unfortunately, he is not as good as it as she is, so when the avalanche breaks loose, he's lost...


The authors are skilled "horror writers" and tell you just enough to make you read more, and faster.  The ideas they use are not ones you come up with while sitting around drinking tea and eating cucumber sandwiches.  I'd enjoy meeting Mr. Goldberg and seeing if he looks as warped as his mind.  And if Mr. Rabkin came along, that'd be even more fun!


This is definitely not a boring read.  You race through the story waiting to see what evil what will pop up next and the words flow well.  I don't read a lot of horror stories, but I sure enjoyed this one.  And I want to see where the story goes from here.  It's just beginning...


The ebook is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Smashwoods. Soon it will be available in the iPad store and, next week, in trade paperback as well.  I'm sure this novella will make your heart beat a bit faster.  Why not pick up a copy and get involved in this new series?


Happy reading!
