Ok 80,s horror short story. A little stilted two dimensional with not a lot going on. Is Jonathan hall possessed by another or is he just ill? Can frank fuller and the good Doctor Lawrence solve this mystical mystery and will good boy Frank be successfull in bedding the lovely Mrs Hall? Thankfully I was pleased that the story did not exceed 250 pages and franks frantic antics were beginning to bore me. So if the excitement is too much seek out a copy on the net or do the sensible thing and read something else

Okay read. Didn't agree with the psychiatrist treating the boy without his mother's consent. Definitely some outdated terminology with regards to mental illness. The mother needed to lighten up and let her boy get the treatment he needed.

When I rate this book a 3 star, it isn't because i didn't like this book, I just think there was nothing spectacular in the book. I was really intrigued with the ending which made it a good ending. Also the characters were really like-able. It was a great short novel.

A gripping book which is hard to put down once you open it up.
A physological thriller.
