The Players and the Game
by Julian Symons
On This Page
Description
'Count Dracula meets Bonnie Parker. What will they do together? The vampire you'd hate to love, sinister and debonair, sinks those eye teeth into Bonnie's succulent throat.' Is this the beginning of a sadistic relationship or simply an extract from a psychopath's diary? Either way it marks the beginning of a dangerous game that is destined to end in chilling terror and bloody murder.Tags

Compelling, slightly dreadful, with rich characterization and lots of plot movement. Symons is fast becoming one of my personal favorites for thrillers, along with Gillian Flynn, Jack Kerley, and the Straw Men series by Michael Marshall. Appeals to British crime devotees, horror fans, and serious readers slumming.
