Description

WHEN EVERYTHING'S BEEN TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU, SOMETIMES THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO IS RUN.

Chris's life of luxury is gone, devastated by the collapse of the European economy. Huddled in a small room with his petrified ten-year-old son, Chris made the decision to stay in his lavish and once cherished home. Gas, water, and electricity are all cut off; his wife and daughter have gone, and food is running out. 

Driven by the need to survive, Chris has decided to keep secrets from his son. Secrets that will make everything else up until this point seem trivial. Secrets that—one way or another—will come out before the day is done.

Cowering in his home, he watches as his neighbours are dragged into the street and brutally executed by a small army of psychotic scavengers hell-bent on making the formerly privileged pay. As they methodically purge each home, Chris realizes that staying was the worst decision of his life. Secrets or not, he has to act fast; the murderous pack only has one more house before they reach his…

What the reviewers say:

"There are a quite a few adjectives I could use to describe Crash: frightening, graphic, raw, disturbing... and wonderfully written and brilliantly compelling! But let's hope it isn't prophetic! The book really is a great read, and the first time I read it, I couldn't put it down - simply had to finish it." Mark Hooper, Angel Editing. 

This is an incredible novel with extreme social/political relevance which took a lot of guts to produce. 

I like this book a lot. It's not one of those books that plays the game of being nice, it's dark, decisive and hard edged. 

Well written and suspenseful. Gritty and barbaric. 

This book, though not for the faint of heart, is excellent.

    Don’t read this if you can’t stand the long, drawn out horrific death of a family pet.
