Features & Highlights

  • Every November for nearly a decade, a body has been found hanging from a tree outside the town of Kerrville. As the tenth year approaches, the killer leaves clues that indicate there will only be one more murder. A reality show and its celebrity host decide that this last murder could be the ratings they've always wanted--and they are determined to find the murderer before the police do. But the police--and the killer--think that is a very, very bad idea.

Engaging

The book is immediately engaging. From small initial investigation it adds another layer of players. One can visualize the small rural setting and big wigs from media and law enforcement.
Dialogs feel real as well as people.
As I was getting to an end , o just wanted to read one chapter a day because I didn't want it to end.
I will have to wait for another of his books.

Another page-turner from HP Newquist!

Ten years gone is a book you will pick up and not put down until the final page is turned.
It is a psychological mystery, thriller, and has a very prevalent ironic viewpoint on the endless true crime reality shows that dominate cable television. I highly recommend this book.

Intense small town mystery

This book left me scared. It is a page turner and a great thriller/mystery with a touch of horror, I loved the twists and misdirections, with a satisfying conclusion. The real feel of a rural small town and a realistic killer. The very end left me breathless and chilled. Highly recommend this book to all who enjoy being a little scared. I received this copy from the author and am pleased to leave an honest review.

More thriller then horror.

This is much more a psychological mystery then horror and as such , for me, was highly enjoyable. Some graphic details but not over done. I did not see the twist coming and I fell for several misdirections. The writing was solid and I was glad I took a chance with one. I received this book from the author and am happy to leave this reveiw.

Such a tense tale!a

Ten Years Gone by H.P. Newquist is a tense crime horror novel centered around a decade of murders. But what’s more terrifying than the Death Day and the murders themselves, is the detail that the police are keeping from the public…

I read this in one sitting. I just could not tear myself away from this tense tale, hoping they would find the killer before they claimed their tenth victim.

I recommend this one to fans of tense crime horror that don’t mind dipping their toes into some blood-boiling situations.
