Creepers: Thriller von David Morrell

Creepers : Thriller / David Morrell
8 Stunden oder Eine unheimliche Nacht

Creepers infiltrieren alte, leer stehende Gebäude und reisen so in vergangene Zeiten zurück.
Frank Balenger bekommt als Außenstehender die Chance eine solche Expedition in die Vergangenheit mit zu erleben.
Balenger hat aber nicht nur die Vergangenheit des Hauses im Sinn sondern auch die wertvollen Münzen der zwanziger Jahre, welche heute mehrere tausend Doller wert sind.
Doch neben mutierten Ratten und Katzen, gibt es noch weitere Lebewesen in dem alten Hotel und auf einmal sind die Creepers nicht mehr allein …

Ein Buch das man nicht mehr weg legen kann. Man taucht in mit den Protagonisten in eine andere Welt ein. Verzaubert von der Schönheit der alten Zeit und doch gefangen in der Hölle.
Spannung bis zum Ende.… (mehr)

Vier Menschen in der Gewalt eines Psychopathen, der ein Video dreht, während sie mit Sprengstoff am Leib verzweifelt um ihr Leben ''spielen'' müssen. Eine von ihnen ist Amanda, die Freundin von Frank Belanger. Im Grunde wissen die Opfer nicht, was sie tun müssen. Nur eines ist klar: In 40 Stunden wird der Sprengstoff gezündet. Für Frank und die Polizei beginnt ein mörderischer Wettlauf gegen die Zeit.… (mehr)
