So Cold the River
Autor Michael Korytaen Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 ian 2011
In Bradford's hometown, Eric discovers an extraordinary history--a glorious domed hotel where movie stars, presidents, athletes, and mobsters once mingled, and hot springs whose miraculous mineral water cured everything from insomnia to malaria. Neglected for years, the resort has been restored to its former grandeur just in time for Eric's stay.
Just hours after his arrival, Eric experiences a frighteningly vivid vision. As the days pass, the frequency and intensity of his hallucinations increase and draw Eric deeper into the town's dark history. He discovers that something besides the hotel has been restored--a long-forgotten evil that will stop at nothing to regain its lost glory. Brilliantly imagined and terrifyingly real,So Cold the Riveris a tale of irresistible suspense with a racing, unstoppable current.

Recenzii
"So
Cold
the
Riveris
a
great
story,
but
what
held
me
was
the
lean,
clean
prose
and
the
sharp
presentation
of
scenes
and
dialogue.
Michael
Koryta
is
a
good
story
teller
and
a
wonderful
stylist."—Joe

"Kortya's SO COLD THE RIVER is an example of the good-writing equals good-reading equation that makes fright-inducing fiction worthy of our time, attention, and real enjoyment."—Dan Simmons,author of The Terror and Drood
"This book builds like a summer storm. Beautiful to watch until it shakes the house and knocks out the lights, leaving you alone in the dark. Another masterful work from Michael Koryta, SO COLD THE RIVER is guaranteed to put the cold finger down your spine."—Michael Connelly
"An icy, terrifying winner.So Cold the Riverputs an October chill in your blood by the end of the first chapter. It's not much longer before you've turned on all the lights and rechecked all the window locks. Few novelists warrant mention alongside Stephen King or Peter Straub. Michael Koryta, however, earns comparison to both."—Dennis Lehane
"Michael Koryta is a gifted storyteller. His writing reminded me of the great Ruth Rendell--eerie, suspenseful, and pleasantly wicked. If you're looking for a dose of Midwestern Gothic at its best, SO COLD THE RIVER will be just the thing for you."—Scott Smith,author of A Simple Plan and The Ruins
"One
of
the
best
of
the
best,
plain
and
simple."—Michael

"Superb writing and storytelling from Michael Koryta...Envy the Nightrepresents his best work to date."—George Pelecanos
"This diabolical novel, laid out in simple but eloquent prose and pitch-perfect dialogue, heralds a changing of the guard. I have seen the future of 'The Best Mystery Writer in America' and its name is Michael Koryta."—Ridley Pearson
"WithEnvy the Night, Koryta earns a seat at the high table of neo-noir crime writers."—Marilyn Stasio,New York Times
"Gangsters, a silent but heroic drifter with second sight, and a whopper of a Florida hurricane. How can you go wrong?"—Stephen King,Entertainment Weekly(onThe Cypress House)
