The action occurs in an isolated town in Wisconsin called Safe Haven, one road in and one road out. Law enforcement consists of one sheriff, the fire department has 2 firefighters and one truck. The town is anything but a safe haven when a team of special ops arrives under cover of darkness on a sinister mission to isolate, terrorize and annihilate, the whole town if they have to. One of the residents has a dark secret and they won’t stop until they find him.

Horror or thriller, I don’t which category this falls into, a little of both I think. The action starts early and keeps building in intensity. It is a thrill ride from start to finish. At point I was wondering how anyone would still be alive at the end, then I started to wonder if anyone would be alive at the end. The plot had some very unexpected twists and a shocking conclusion.

This book is not for the weak hearted, if you are not a fan of horror and do not like being scared by what you read this book is definitely not for you, there is a lot of graphic, gory violence in it.

About Belleza

I got the name Bella because my grandfather called me Suzabell. I use that as a username and my friends on the site started calling me Bella. Thus was born: Bella Foxx's Life, now known as "just a city girl" since I have made the big jump from the country and am now living in the City, UES. I like to make jewelry (check out my blog "Bella is creative" started April 17, 2008) and write. I like to do cross stitch and knit. I sew, I don't really enjoy it, but I enjoy the clothes. I like to read the Bible, books, magazines, online newspaper articles, blogs, jokes on candy wrappers, ads on the subway, billboards, backs of food boxes, lists of ingredients and recipes, cleaning directions, sayings on shirts. I post my reviews on "Just a girl, living, reading, watching, and writing", on Shelfari, Library Thing and Goodreads.. I am allergic to practically everything: grass, trees, weeds, animal dander, dust, mold, wheat, apples, nuts, fish and coconut. The fish and coconut are so serious I carry an Epi-pen and wear a Medic-Alert bracelet. And last but not least. I love the Yankees.

    I liked to be scared, so I think I’d enjoy this book. Though I’ll be sure not to read it at night when I’m the only one still awake.
