Animosity by James Newman
5.0
I don't even know what to say. I'm moved, I'm pissed off, and I'm shaken. This was a powerful tale.
A brutal story made even more so by the fact that it could (mostly) happen. A child's dead body is discovered by a horror author. From then on, his life will never be the same.
There are many levels here, from a fearless look at mob mentality to a scathing commentary on the sad state of our media. All combining into a monumental explosion of a denouement. The only issue I had was that the story went just a little over the top, as far as being realistic, but by that time, I was too caught up in the drama to care.
Be prepared for a rough ride because Mr. Newman knows all of our buttons, and he pushes every single one of them. Can you handle this kind of Animosity? Come on, I dare you.
My highest recommendation!
I received a free copy of this novel in exchange for my honest review and this is it.
