      Kdo má rád filmové fantazie Tima Burtona, nebude rozhodně zklamán ani jeho příběhy v knižní podobě. Soubor 23 básní zavádí čtenáře do tragikomického světa absurdity, chytrého humoru a nezapře autorskou věrnost podivuhodným postavičkám trudného vzezření i údělu. Burton jednoduchým, nehledaným a rytmickým jazykem, jenž není nepodobný říkadlům, představuje zranitelnou existenci těchto přinejmenším zvláštních a rozmanitých outsiderů, jejichž životy vyvolávají úsměv i rozpaky. Všechny bytosti zpodobňují nezaměnitelné Burtonovy ilustrace — třeba Ústřičného chlapečka, Toxíka Roye, Mnohoočku, Fleka, kteří zvou čtenáře-diváka aby se stal svědkem i účastníkem jejich bizarních zrození, osudů a "konců".

      HE WILL NEVER FORGET The broken body hanging from a tree in Texas Hill Country . . . the frozen figure huddled in a meat locker...only at second glance does the truth become apparent. What seems like suicide is far more sinister, and the terror is only beginning . . . NEVER FORGIVE One devastating moment changed Greer Templeton's life and ended two others. Now, with a body found on her property and Texas Ranger Tec Bragg on her doorstep, Greer's nightmare has returned. With each new victim, her link to Tec's case grows, and soon it will be too late to run. AND NEVER LET THEM LIVE . . . Greer hoped the past was behind her, but an obsessed killer has never forgotten the bond that unites them. One by one, he will track down his victims, finish what was started--and make Greer's dying wish come true . . . "Burton once again demonstrates her romantic suspense chops with this taut novel. Burton plays cat-and-mouse with the reader through a tight plot, with credible suspects and romantic spice keeping it real." --Publishers Weekly

      "An aspiring artist. A high-school senior. A stripper. Three missing women with only one thing in common--wealthy Craig Thornton knew them all. For that, they paid the ultimate price. When Craig's widow, Adrianna, begins to receive cards and flowers from her late husband, she assumes it's someone's cruel joke. Then grisly remains are found on the Thornton estate. Detective Gage Hudson believes the bodies are linked to Craig. But the biggest shocks are yet to come. A psychopath has resumed his work, each death a prelude to his most cherished target. The only way to stop him is to uncover a family's dark past--and a twisted love someone will kill for, again and again."--Page 4 of cover
