West Quarry Farm starts off with a chilling glimpse inside the mind of a killer It became really scary when I realized that he wasn t the true mastermind in this macabre story This set up gives way to the entrance of a few other characters, including Mel and Rebecca Both of whom add their own POV s Mel is a devoted single mom who wants to help her adolescent daughter get over a trauma of some kind, the details of which are merely hinted at She s also keen about seeking justice Little does she kn [...]
CharactersI thought the summary misrepresented who we would see the most of I expected we d spend most of the book with Mel Williams but there are twice as many chapters with Phil Matteson and Rebecca Stead This is important because I wasn t a fan of Rebecca at all In fact most times I just wanted her chapters to end Mel on the other hand I had a lot of respect for Phil is one bad dude and the author did an amazing job making him creepy and calmly evil Also Jenny Rebecca s friend is a hoot PlotT [...]
West Quarry Farm is a well written slow paced thriller which examines a slice of life with a creepy intrusion I didn t think it was well written at first I thought it was choppy with odd word usage Then I realized it is set in England and assumed the author is English I began reading with an English accent and suddenly the writing was smooth and flowed perfectly So there s a reading tip for other American readers Use the right accent The best way to describe the main character, Rebecca, is with [...]
This is a great thriller novel It follow two women, Rebecca and Mel, and a killer.I kind of wanted to see a little Mel as she stalked the killer, but it was interesting to read about Rebecca as she gets ensnared by this predator You kind of want to sit there screaming DON T DO THAT like you do in horror movies when they go in the basement.The author did a great job of setting the scene in Brighton, where the novel takes place I only would have liked to have seen of Mel and gotten back store w [...]
Real rating 3.75 stars.I found this book quite entertaining, well written and moved through it quite quickly It s mainly about a woman named Rebecca who lives in the Brighton area, UK with her young daughter and husband, Jason The author does a great job of capturing the goings on of Rebecca s life showing the reader her boredom, and frustration Rebecca is probably in a similar situation to many mothers, trying to earn a bit of extra cash, keep her husband happy and interested She rushes about t [...]
West Quarry Farm is a very exciting read I really identified with the main character, Mel I am almost the same age, and have the same issues I felt myself being pulled into this drama as if the events were happening to me.This is a skillfully woven tale that sets the bar high Let s face it when a story begins at an old farms where pigs are slaughtered, shivers are bound to creep up your back And, as soon as you begin reading the first chapter they never quite leave.I enjoyed the everyday way the [...]
This book started out with a gruesome beginning that immediately drew me in I loved the character of Rebecca, the neglected housewife OK, she didn t always make the best decisions, but I think that was part of what kept me reading I also loved Mel s character.Usually I don t like books with detailed descriptions of violence, but I felt this was skillfully done I liked that we got Phil s point of view, which I thought really added to the creepy atmosphere All in all, it was hard to stop reading t [...]
I really liked this book The first chapter really sets it up for a creepy mood, as one of the killers introduces his victim, Charlie Westthorpe, who hangs dead from a chain in the maggot breeding curing room He isn t the main killer though, his name is Phil, or Tig, and is the leader of the murderous duo Phil is a rich, attractive young man who is described as immature and selfish, yet with admirable self confidence No hesitation, no self doubt, and he s my favorite character He crosses paths wi [...]
This book had me ensnared from the very first page and wouldn t let me go until the last I don t usually read books in this genre, but I was so glad I read this one I was scared Seriously, terrified in some parts of this book I found myself literally yelling at the characters not to do certain things James Sillwoods artfully wrote an exciting thriller that was so perfectly creepy that I couldn t help but love it.We follow Rebecca and Mel, two fascinating main characters who have relatable issues [...]
I m not sure if it s the mundaneness of Rebecca s life that brings a chilling eeriness to some scenes or the thought of what Phil might be capable of, but West Quarry Farm definitely makes for uncomfortable reading in a good way Twice I jumped while reading the book, even when I was expecting something to happen the second time.The story and building tension kept the pages turning and brought a wry smile to my lips with the ending The author has the knack of luring you into one scene, only for i [...]
Check out this review, and many , on my blog jessjesinghaus.wordpressThe opening chapter of West Quarry Farm was eerie and captivating, a perfect launchpad for what would prove to be an interesting tale At its heart, it s a story about two women one seeking escape from her boring housewife life, and the other seeking justice against the man who assaulted her daughter Between these two women is a killer, a chameleon who manages to beguile all those around him I liked the intersecting story lines, [...]
If you want warm fuzzies when you read, pass this by but if you re looking for cold chills, snap it up From the very first chilling pages, this is a work designed to disturb, and it does so admirably Clive or Phil or Tig, or whatever other alias he might choose, is a fully evil human being, reveling in torture, sexual assault, and murder as well as the comparatively mundane crimes of fraud and drug dealing The heroines, strangers brought together because of coming into Phil s orbit, are both de [...]
I found this an intriguing book on several levels Firstly, with a horrific opening grisly, lots of gore we re in dark, scary, chiller territory.Then the mood switches Routine domesticity as young wife Rebecca struggles at home, suspects husband Jason is having an affair, tries to set up a small greenhouse venture and cope with irascible young daughter Amy and a missing cat called Treacle Bored and prone to making bad decisions, Rebecca does internet buying selling and gets involved with bad, bad [...]
The writer doesn t hesitate dishing out blood and suspense During the first few pages I crap you not my spine tingled, and my stomach became slightly nauseated This was at 8 30 AM, in the daylight, and I was extremely thankful that I hadn t started reading the night before If American Psycho and The Hand that Rocks the Cradle were dropped into a cocktail shaker, mixed, and the resulting contents were splattered forensic style across 200 pages, this book would be the result With unwanted explicit [...]
West Quarry Farm is a book that will keep you on edge and may even keep you up at night It s a scary psychological horror with plot twists mixed throughout its entirety The book opens with a glimpse at the killer and how he thinks Some of the characters were fun to follow along with and even creepily interesting, but some I didn t like Not because the writing was bad, just because the character irritated me I did not like Rebecca and I didn t like how she treated her family I did, however, like [...]
This is a good thriller We start with the fantastic description of a scene that highlights some of the skills this author brings to the table, and immediately sends a chill up your spine The characters are crafted well, the plot and the idea are intense, and the author does a great job taking you through his tale of a serial killer, his dimwitted accomplice, a damaged mother, and a chance meeting that will keep you turning the pages Some parts of the tale seemed a little redundant and frustratin [...]
A monstrous man walks among the innocent people of Brighton, UK He blends with them and entices his victims and keeps score A seemingly normal but emotionally troubled adventure seeking housewife almost falls in his trap.This Novel begins with a great story line and grabs your attention from the get go You almost start to wonder if it can deliver what you expect after reading the first few chapters However, I am glad to tell you that this novel definitely delivers It is intriguing and exciting t [...]

This was quite a surprising little book in a good way First of all, I must say I was surprised with how fast I read it and I m a very fast reader It just flowed effortlessly, and it remained interesting for the most part of that later.The book begins like a Patricia Cornwell novel it s worth saying that her name is referred to later in the novel , but soon the pace changes It slows down, takes a breath, lays out the foundation I found that very interesting and engaging generally speaking I disl [...]
