Crash
Sometimes the ghosts that haunt us most aren’t the dead.
It has been nearly a year since writer Thomas Witt lost his daughter in a horrible car accident which nearly killed him. He and his wife are attempting to have another child and put their lives back together.
However, he can’t move on.
In addition to his daughter, there’s something else missing — specifically his memories for six months prior to the accident.
He finds himself obsessively drawn to accident scenes where he photographs the carnage in attempts to reclaim his memories.
But what he finds in the photographs may just destroy him.
Crash is the first non-series book from The Kings of the Serial and bestselling authors, Sean Platt and David Wright.

This read wasn't the "horror" read I thought it was going to be although what was contained in these pages would be considered horrific for anyone who has gone through such a thing.
I can't fathom what the loss of a child would do to me mentally. This story is about Thomas and his wife who have lost a child. Each are coping or not coping with the loss in their own way.
Thomas listens to the radio and shows up at car crash scenes hoping it will help him remember what his mind has blocked out. In every picture he takes at the site, Thomas sees a man standing next to the victims and this makes Thomas question his own sanity. Is what he sees really real? Will his wife leave him or will he be able to keep his wife and try again at having a family?
The story was very compelling, but I felt it dragged on a bit. I'm thinking it was the pacing.
The paranormal element was just the right touch to keep the reader guessing. However, the ending lacked in luster due to the fact that Thomas "told" the reader the truth and jarringly took me, the reader, out of this moment that was supposed to be a wowing reveal.
I liked it, but I needed a little "more" to love it than what I read.
I will try something else by these authors.

I adored this book, and a huge reason why it worked so well for me was because I found it unpredictable, so I won't give any spoilers in this review.
As far as themes go, loss is a big one. Loss of a child even bigger. While I don't have any kids myself, the main character's - Tom's - pain felt hauntingly real. I know some people don't like it, but this is the main reason I enjoy the first person POV - the reader gets to be in someone's head and experience things as the characters do. When done well, it gives amazing results: this book is definitely a good example of that.
I felt the book was honest, a serious insight into what would be every parent's worst fear, which indeed makes it extremely dark. The intrigue of how Tom can't remember what exactly happened, and the strange events that occur while he tries to piece it together kept me reading not just while I burnt dinner in the evening (the hubby was not amused), but also on my desk at work the next morning (I imagine the boss wasn't amused either). I couldn't put it down until the end, which is a significant feat because I often can get distracted by the slightest thing. This is a book that will stay with you which again isn't easy to achieve.
As becomes obvious from the Author's note, this was a tough book to write, and even tougher to release but IMHO, those works tend to be the ones most worthwhile. If it's difficult to put down on paper, perhaps even painful, that's a clear indicator it's meaningful as well. So if you enjoy some depth in your reading, and don't shy away from depressing subject matter, you should definitely give this one a try.

In the afterword Wright talks quite extensively about the journey this story took him on, decades in fact, only to be preempted by Sixth Sense. Although if one must be preempted by something, it better be a classic. In fact Crash is fairly reminiscent of Sixth Sense, but Wright has put a definitive personalized spin on it, particularly with the ending, to make it his own story. So much so that in the end it really isn't about seeing ghosts at all, it turns out to be a sort of uplifting life affirming morality tale. Kind of an interesting choice for Halloween night. It was an good read, entertaining story that moved along at a good speed and kept the reader guessing throughout. Nice twist ending, although really disturbing, makes you wonder about the limits of forgiveness. Glad the author put out a stand alone, there are entirely too many series out there and I much prefer a story that can wrap itself up in a timely manner. Enjoyable quick read. Recommended.

This is a wonderfully deceptive book. It's a ghost story...until it isn't. It's a story about a father losing his daughter...until it isn't. The twist in this book is great. I knew there would be one but what actually happened wasn't one of the theories I had thought up.
It started off with a man trying to cope with a lot of pain after a bad car accident. One that took the life of his daughter. It morphs a bit into The Sixth Sense, which the author refers to in his notes at the end of the story, but that's not what this story ends up as. It ultimately reminded me of another movie, albeit decades old now, but in case you saw it I don't want to ruin this story by mentioning it's name. Suffice to say it was awesome, and it's twist worked equally well here. It's not very long, I read it in a few hours, so if you're looking for an interesting read but not wanting to turn that into your new full-time occupation, I would highly recommend reading this.

Crash starts out well enough, revolving around a writer who is grappling with the loss of his daughter in a car crash by obsessively taking photographs of vehicular accidents, but the deus-ex at the novel's end was disappointing, as though tacked on by writers who weren't quite certain how to finish what they'd started. Much of the novel is a blatant assault on the reader's emotions (does it get more traumatic than dead children and guilt?), but a defter hand would have simultaneously woven in foreshadowing and hints that would have also engaged the reader's mind and left the twist at the end feeling more logical and satisfying.

An incredibly depressing story about a man and his wife attempting to cope with the death of their daughter. The supernatural elements were intriguing and the explanation for them was very satisfying. I especially enjoyed the author's note at the end and could see how the story had changed and evolved from it's original form; echoes from it's previous incarnations resounded throughout and gave the story a deeper feel.

I am rarely surprised by twists in a story, but the one in Crash actually made my jaw drop. While I did not find Crash overly horrific for a horror novel (and it is probably due to my hardened, dark soul), I did enjoy the journey of Thomas Witt as he deals with the death of his daughter and the consequences of his actions. Even though I wish the story was a bit longer and that some scenes held more suspense, I am highly recommending this read to others.

Another fabulous read by great authors. This book is very dark be forewarned. The twist is awesome and terrible. If this is your first time reading them great way to start. The story is short and can be read in a few hours.

🌿Review time!
🌿I'm not against indie writers as seen with this book which interested me enough to purchase it. Thing is most of indie writers don't really give anything extraordinary with their books. I know we all start somewhere but for me, at least so far, my experience with indie books haven't been good.
🌿Crash is an average book. I read better and I read worse. As an avid listener of the NoSleepPodcast I wasn't surprised by this story. If anything, all the time I felt like I heard this exact story on the podcast. It may be just the feeling of the book, so similar to the stories I listen to. OR this story was indeed featured in the podcast.
🌿I can't say this book is bad because it isn't but Crash is definitely not a horror book. A mystery story perhaps, but not horror. It wasn't scary it was just... Sad.
🌿What I did like was the writing style. It was easy to follow and understand. If both authors continue to hone their skills they just might become a well known writers. Just their stories need to be scarier but this is coming from a hardcore horror fan 😂
🌿All in all - not a bad short read for those wanting something easy, somewhat spooky and with desire to support indie writers👌

An amazing dark story that somehow brings out light
I picked up this book a long time ago because Sean Platt and David Wright are one of my all time favorites, but didn't actually start reading until now. In a way I'm glad I didn't read it at the time because I probably wouldn't have been in the future mindset for this kind of story.
The only form of a spoiler I will give you is that this is an immensely dark book. There are heavy topics such as the dynamics of mental health, anxiety, addictions, forgiveness, and many more.
I can see why this took nearly 30 years of writing and planning to release just the right story and I think the message they were looking to give was very well done. You will be in for a ride!!

5/5
This book is messed up.
And glorious.
Crash is the story of Thomas Witt, a novelist who is struggling even a year after his young daughter was killed in a car crash. He cannot remember the day it happened, or the six months prior, which puts a strain on both his personal and professional lives. He writes a horror series with his wife, but is not a note-taker so he lost much of the next book they were going to write in those six months. He also takes pictures of other crashes in his area, feeling they will somehow jog his memory.
I will not say more, in fear of spoilers.
This is the first Platt & Wright book I've read. Before this, I devoured Sean Platt's Writer Dad and I tore through Crash with as much enthusiasm. I read it in a day, I couldn't put it down.
Both Crash and their other latest release, Threshold are both stand alone novels. Platt did the heavy lifting on Threshold, and Crash is David Wright's disturbing little brain-child.
I say that (partly) in jest, because the book is ultimately hopeful, just in its own twisted way.
Once you're through, you'd be doing yourself a favor to read the Author's note. Most are pointless throwaways with the author thanking people you don't know. But here, Wright takes you through the origin and story of how this book came to be, and it is fascinating.
David Wright writes some messed up sh!t, but it's my kind of messed up sh!t.

I started reading this without even reading the story's description and I'm glad I did. This had just the right amount of "horror" in it for me. It put me on edge enough to turn on a light in my darkened room once I got to the darker parts (the glow of my kindle wasn't doing much for me and the creepy shadows) but it would bring me back to something to hold on to and not give me nightmares for days to come. This book was unpredictable and as someone who enjoys psychology, I was very interested in the mind play the main character was going through. And I felt it right there with him. This story will make you question yourself, what would you do in this situation? And it's a tough scenario. Well done. I'd like to read more from this author. Also, even the author's note was interesting to read which is a first for me.
July 27, 2014
This is a horribly well-written book about a parent's worst nightmare - losing a child and being the one responsible for the child's death.
From the beginning, you know Tom's was driving when his car crashed, killing his daughter, Kayla. Yet you can't help sympathising with him for the depth of his grief and that of his wife, Meg. As for the thought of having another child...after losing the first, it's hard to contemplate such a frightening prospect.
Mr Wright's style sucked me right in, so that I read this pretty much in one go, with only occasional breaks as dictated by my seven-year-old daughter. I guess that's why I had trouble sleeping after reading this - for it hit home so spectacularly.
A haunting story that stays with you...even after the ghosts are gone.

Crash doesn't start with new or original ideas. instead we are treated to a nostalgic story which should feel familiar to any horror fan. It was this cliched haunted author and ghostly figures captured on camera which had me hooked right from the start. Like only the best authors Wright takes the comfotable world we are familiar with and flips it upside down on its head in a way I could never see coming.
In his auhors note, Wright mentions the time this story has taken and it really shows. This is beautiful work with a truly valuable lesson at the heart of it. Really reminded me of my younger days spent reading King and James Herbert.

Absolutely enjoyed this book. Through my hectic work schedule and house work, I read this book in 2 days.
Short, fast paced story. I am not sure I'd categorize this as "horror", it's a great book nonetheless.
Very easy to identify with the main character, maybe because I am a parent too. His fear, sadness, confusion were palpable, raw and real to me, and throughout the book, it stayed unpredictable, which I really liked, not knowing what you're gonna see around the next corner at all, definitely suspenseful!
I liked this book so much, now I am going to read their famous "Yesterday's Gone" series!

I enjoyed the book and it was a fast read and carried me through the end. I felt for the tormented Thomas. He and his wife trying to manage their lives after the death of a child. But not is all that it seems, even though I am very good at picking out the surprises, this one I did not see coming. WoW! Was the ending plausible, hmmmmm, maybe. I'd have to read it twice to find any fault with the surprise ending. All in all, a good quick read and very enjoyable. I love it when I cannot see the end coming, my favorite part of any book. Give it a try and see if you can guess the ending. I bet you won't!!
July 12, 2014
A stand-alone book by David Wright and Sean Platt, this book is a thrill to read! I couldn't wait to get to the end of the book to find out what was really going on. And I didn't figure it out before the end.
I have read all of the Authors' series books and love them. I enjoy their style of writing and can get right into all of their books and just get lost in their stories. Their characters are always written so well....I feel like I know them.
Looking forward to reading "Threshold" in September. Good job guys!

This book was so very powerful. I read it in one sitting which is unusual for me, but I just couldn't put it down. The characters still live in my heart and I have not been able to remove the book from my Kindle. Briefly the husband and wife writing team, go through a shared horrific event that changes them both and their grief is so strong that it is pulling them apart by their frayed edges. The twists are sharp and extreme. This far surpasses the Stephen King's Nightmares and Dreamscapes. I will read everything I can from David Wright.

A Truly Wonderful Reading Experience!
This is one of those stories that grabbed me from the first paragraph and had me racing through my Kindle until the big reveal when... *spoiler*
Then a funny thing happened. While the story's pace slowed, it became much wider, deeper, and richer, as I became fully immersed in the main character; wanting nothing more than to comfort him through the last pages.
What a truly wonderful reading experience. Highly recommended, but don't forget your box of tissues.

Gritty, visceral and unrelenting; Crash is the newest novel by writers Sean Platt & David W. Wright of the Collective Inkwell. This story, set around a man dealing with the loss of a child and the missing memories leading up to the accident that caused her death, was a lot of fun to read and I had trouble putting it down. The twist was great, and even though I saw it coming, I was very happy with the results and would recommend this book to anyone.

I read this novella very quickly - the creepy premise, compelling MC, and natural prose made it easy to do so. Although the ending wasn't completely surprising (except for one major bit that most assuredly was a shock), I felt very satisfied - and quite moved.
Well done, Dave - I'm delighted to see that your long-fermenting story is finally done. Like your MC, Thomas Witt, I hope you're feeling a bit of closure these days.

I can't say much without spoiling too much of the plot, but I'll try... Crash is a haunting ghost story in the style of The Sixth Sense and, at the same time, a beautiful exploration of what it means to be a man and a father.
I enjoyed the book a lot and in the end, was left thinking about who I want to be and how I want to live my life. Something that not many ghost stories have managed to do to me.

Thomas Witt is trying to repair himself and his family after he is involved in a car accident that kills his daughter. While trying to recover, he realizes he is missing six months of his life and he spends a huge amount of time trying to recover it, sometimes by taking graphic photos of accident scenes. The ending I didn't see coming as he discovers the truth about the accident and the fact that his searching is happening in his head while in a coma.

Kept me invested, was a great read.
First I must disclose that I am a "Goner" and already love Dave and Sean's writing style. I loved this book. I got so caught up in the story that I read it in one afternoon. I can't risk any spoilers so I'll just say it is worth the read and you will always remember this story. Buy it.
