Charley has a strange feeling when she sees the idyllic mill house with its cluster of outbuildings, the lake and the swirling mill stream; a powerful sense of recognition, as if she has been there before. Except she knows she hasn’t.

Possession by Peter James | Goodreads

Smile And Other Stories: Smile; the Wrong Side; Making Hay; Empire Building; Lost Boys; Stiff Competition; Horse Sense; Monsters; Snake Girl; Vacant Possession; Some Day my Prince Will Come Marcus Valentine seemingly has it all: he’s smart, charming, a successful doctor with a wife, three kids and a job he loves. But something, or rather someone, is missing… A fun little mystery horror/thriller. I think this would make a great beach read as it's easy to get through and has a pretty fast pace that'll keep you hooked throughout. Thankfully got me out of my reading slump. Only downside was that it was a little predictable and I could work out the ending about 2/3 of the way in.

Soft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. All proceeds go to the charity SOL (Services for Open Learning) - an educational charity (registered charity number: 1019182). Please feel free to ask us any questions. New Ninepenny Novels. Slight discolouration to spine. My Halloween choice for this year turned out to be a poor one indeed. Peter James, who is bewilderingly compared to writers such as Michael Crichton and Stephen King, seems to have kept his place in mainstream popularity. In fact, I wouldn't say this is entirely undeserved either. He can generally spin a good thriller - nothing amazing, but usually decent. I enjoyed Alchemist and Denial, and even Host would have been higher in my esteem if it just wasn't so tiresomely long. This though, his third novel, was perplexingly bad. Leaving aside the hollow characters, the cliched scares and sloppy structure, the whole thing is just a lazy retread of Blatty's The Exorcist, religious contemplations and all, only without an ounce of that novel's greatness.
