"A provocative, twisty, hugely entertaining high-concept thriller, but be prepared to flinch!"
Twisty-turny and oh-so provocative, this is the type of book that will stick a sneaky foot out to trip you up. Spend five days in Hinton Hollow as it welcomes home Detective Sergeant Pace, who is being followed by Evil (yes, that’s right, Evil). Wait until you can give Hinton Hollow your full attention, because it deserves it. The town starts with a population of 5,120, what will it be by the end? Narrated by Evil, you are warned right at the very beginning that you can walk away and not read further. If you continue you may feel uncomfortable, start to self-reflect, even flinch, but remember, you were warned! Is this part of a series - well, there are now three books featuring Detective Sergeant Pace, but each reads equally well as a standalone. Having said that, I recommend starting with Good Samaritans and following it with Nothing Important Happened Today before starting here. As always with Will Carver, I couldn’t begin to guess how it would end, so didn’t even try, I just enjoyed the ride. If you like something just a little different then Hinton Hollow Death Trip is an original, thought-provoking and hugely entertaining read.

Chilling, sinister, dark and festering, I only hope that Evil and his plans won’t pay a to visit our towns and cities anytime soon!
Will Carver always guarantees to deliver a high-concept, dark, and twisted literary thriller and the third in the unique Detective Sergeant Pace series, Hinton Hollow Death Trip is no exception.
With a distinctive and eye catching layout, the story is instantly addictive and with interesting little snippets on most of the pages, these fitted in perfectly with the chapter you are reading and are often thought provoking on the human condition.
Uniquely recountered and narrated by Evil itself, this provided a remarkable voice to an already chilling story. Very chilling but I did find I endeared to Evil even though they are everything it’s name suggests! There’s a lot of uncomfortable reading but in a surreal, entertaining way - however, I like my stories to be as dark as dark can be.... Read Full Review
