Life After Dane

I discovered this author completely by accident when I participated in a very short but very detailed conversation about the demonic properties of cold pop tarts, then following a recommendation by a beard (the beard?) I decided to buy this book and I am so glad I took the plunge. This is as good as any horror book I've read. There's two things going on here, on one hand you got the very real human horror of abuse and then there is the paranormal element (a nod to The Dark Half?) It all works and its written brilliantly. The ending was just about as perfect as you can get. Just one thing, there does seem be a recurring thing about wrap around walkways, what was the significance or was I looking at something that wasn't there?
