Book description
New York City. Friday night. Untouched by anything visible, Mrs
Greenberg's furniture starts to slide across the room - and however hard
she tries, she can't move it back.
Harry Erskine, self-taught fortune teller, agrees to investigate - but
soon realises that Mrs Greenberg's moving furniture is just the
beginning of a nightmare, for it is being drawn by the same inexorable
force which drags us all to the grave.
City by city, America is on the brink of falling into the abyss - women
and children, streets and buildings - one and all brought thundering and
screaming into the dominion of the dead... Graham Masterton (born
1946, Edinburgh) is a British horror author. Originally editor of
Mayfair and the British edition of Penthouse, Graham Masterton s first
novel The Manitou was released in 1976. This novel was adapted in 1978
for the film The Manitou.
Further works garnered critical acclaim, including a Special Edgar award
by the Mystery Writers of America for Charnel House and a Silver Medal
by the West Coast Review of Books for Mirror. He is also the only
non-French winner of the prestigious Prix Julia Verlanger for his novel
Family Portrait, an imaginative reworking of the Oscar Wilde novel The
Picture of Dorian Gray.
Masterton s novels often contain visceral sex and horror. In addition to
his novels, Masterton has written a number of sex instruction books,
including How To Drive Your Man Wild In Bed and Wild Sex for New Lovers.
