Kin by Kealan Patrick Burke
4.0
Where Texas Chainsaw Massacre ends, KIN begins. A girl stumbles out onto a country road, injured and on the run from the cannibalistic family who murdered her friends. Two passers by in a pickup truck become her saviours. But Claire killed one of the “kin” when she made her escape, and now his family are out for revenge.
Kin starts out with a fantastic concept and a nail-bitingly tense opening. It’s worth reading for the first third alone, as well as the excruciatingly horrible backstory of the kin themselves. After that, the pace slows down a bit, and what follows is part-thriller, part-examination of life after trauma. Some of the scenes in this book will stay with me for a long time. A very worthwhile read for fans of TCM or the novels of Jack Ketchum.
