Read PDF Extract of the novel

"A magnificent millennial nightmare"  ALAN MOORE, creator of Watchmen and V For Vendetta.

"Wow, seriously hard to put down... chilling and utterly immersive"  M.R. CAREY, author of The Girl With All The Gifts.

Selected by Simon Mayo's Radio 2 Book Club!  A Not The Booker prize longlist selection of Summer 2016!


THE MOST CHILLING AND UNPREDICTABLE THRILLER OF THE YEAR.

Jack Sparks died while writing this book.

It was no secret that journalist Jack Sparks had been researching the occult for his new book. No stranger to controversy, he'd already triggered a furious Twitter storm by mocking an exorcism he witnessed.

Then there was that video: forty seconds of chilling footage that Jack repeatedly claimed was not of his making, yet was posted from his own YouTube account.

Nobody knew what happened to Jack in the days that followed - until now. 

Out in paperback right now in the UK, US and Canada, this standalone book delivers the answers to those questions and many more.  Check out the book which The Three author Sarah Lotz describes as "scarier than watching The Exorcist in an abandoned asylum, wittier than the lovechild of Stephen Fry and Charlie Brooker"!

If you would like to help me and the late Jack Sparks even more than you already have, here are a few suggestions for things you could do. A buffet of possibilities, if you will... 

Review Jack Sparks Somewhere!
I can't begin to 
tell you how important book reviews are: especially for a debut novel. 

​Would you like to write a quick (or not so quick, I'm not the boss of you) review of the book at Amazon or iBooks, thereby 
attaining ULTRA-SAINT status? Wow. Wowww
. You rock. Here are the links you need: 

Amazon: UK | US | Canada | Australia | Italy 
France | Netherlands | Spain| Germany | Japan 
India | Mexico | Brazil  

iTunes Store links: UK | US | Australia

And if you're in the UK, here's the handy link to the wonderful online world of Waterstones, where a review would also be entirely amazing. Same goes for Forbidden Planet! And, of course,
your very own blog! You'll have to
provide your own link to that last one...

Tell More People About Jack Sparks
​If there's one thing that every publisher in the world probably wishes they could buy, it's word of mouth. Because you really can't beat someone you know and trust telling you about a book they loved.
