The Rats by James Herbert
dark
tense
medium-paced
- Diverse cast of characters? No
0.5
The misogyny and sexualisation of children took away from any good tension and plot. Hoping that the disgusting main character would be used as a device, I persisted, only to be disappointed.
Quote "Two giggling girls, both in short skirts, both with bouncing breasts, both about fourteen years old, flounced past. 'Anyway, the crumpet' s good.' Harris smiled to himself."
