About This Title:
Poker Club
by Ed Gorman
A weekly Poker game in the suburbs becomes an urban nightmare when the middle-class
players accidentally kill an intruder whose shadowy friend vows vengeance after
the poker players throw the victim's body into the river. A classic cat-and-mouse
story of ever-mounting suspense.
A lengthy novel (over 500 manuscript pages!) based on the widely-acclaimed
novella "Out There in the Darkness".
Critical praise includes:
"A haunting and unforgettable novella."
-- Ellery Queen
"Scary because it's so plausible,
and because Gorman knows exactly how
to keep the reader on the edge of his
seat."
-- Science Fiction Chronicle
"A sense of menace that grows until
it becomes almost palpable ... a powerful
story."
-- Forthcoming Mysteries
