Somebody's Voice by Ramsey Campbell
In a bid to rescue his reputation, Alex Grand ghostwrites a memoir of abuse on behalf of a survivor, Carl Batchelor. Carls account proves to be less than entirely reliable; someone is alive who shouldnt be. As Alex investigates the background of Carls accusations his grasp of the truth of the book and of his own involvement begins to crumble..."Somebody’s Voice was a quality thriller and shows the versatility and range of one of the giants of the horror world"
-- Ginger Nuts of Horror"Somebody’s Voice is a harrowing read, a well-crafted novel about the writing process and the oddballs who pursue it as a career, about the fragile nature of truth, about identity, memory, and voice. It’s a terrific addition to Campbell’s list of accomplishments."
-- Considering Stories"I doubt I’ve read a more convincing account of incipient paranoia, the way an underlying issue is gradually exposed by stressful events involving livelihood and interpersonal attachments."
-- Gary Fry“Highly recommended for Campbell's fans and anyone who is not afraid to face the dark side of humanity in an attempt to open minds.”
-- A Reviewer Darkly
