Explanation Concering Books Denial

This is a fast moving thriller of a read that does keep your interest through to the end. Gloria Lamark is an actress who takes her own life at the start of the read, but whose presence really does dominate the book which is the story of her son Thomas’s search for revenge against all the people who he thinks has betrayed her in the past. Thomas himself is a wonderful villain, deliciously creepy and weird throughout.

The chapters are short sharp and punchy. There is a lot of graphic torture based violence which is very gory at times – think Silence of the Lambs crossed with Psycho and you have a good idea of what you will be getting into with this one.

The writing is OK for the most part, although I was surprised about the number of missing words and in particular the fact that the name of Glen’s wife changed from Grace to Ari and back again. Gloria herself is described as being 59 at the start of the book but we are later told she was 69. I don’t really expect errors like that from an author and publishing house of this stature, especially in a book that was first written pre-e book days when I think editorial standards were definitely higher.

There is one thing that I really did not like about this book and that is the way he portrays the relationship between Thomas and his mother. He brilliantly manages to convey the exact nature of the relationship at the start of the book in just one sentence. Thomas is taking his mother breakfast in bed dressed in his dressing gown and just by telling me that Gloria liked him to be naked under the dressing gown tells me everything I need to know about the relationship. What I don’t need is further graphic scenes of what is in fact child abuse but told in quite a salacious way, particularly the bathtub scene which really left a sour taste in my mouth. It was unnecessary and overshadowed the rest of the read for me.

Assess Appertaining To Books Denial

Unalloyed BrillianceThey very best book I have read in years, and I read five books a week. I read "Denial", from digital cover to digital cover, in one sitting. I have not yet been to sleep, and it is now 10:00 in the morning. Am I tired? No! I am wide awake! Completely EXHILARATED! Filled with the excitement and joy brought about by genius story-telling, brilliant prose, fascinating characters and the trance-like immersion one feels when wrapped up in and absorbed by a transcendent literary

Defination of a Thriller..........Denial!

This book started off as a real page turner and ended with a clever twist. Unfortunately part of the story was far fetched and irritating and yet it coukd have been so good. Thomas Lamark, son of movie star Gloria has been dominated by his mother since childhood. He finds his mother dead and goes on a killing spree, targeting those he holds responsible plus a few additional casualties. Thomas and his mother had an incestuous relationship- this was very cleverly done by James. What I didnt like

A brilliant early piece from Peter James; a piece that introduces us to Glenn Branson who is a regular feature in the Roy Grace series. Tense throughout with lashings of violence (which is something I really do enjoy in books, call me morbid maybe)

Undoubtedly one of Peter James best books (so far!)To date I had only read 'the Roy Grace' books, but thoroughly enjoyed this. Good to read a bit about Glen Branson when he was a DC.Nice twist at the end.

The suspense makes you want to read it without putting it down great
