Dort stößt Melanie auf ein lange gehütetes Geheimnis – und die Morde beginnen erneut … Matt Serafinis »HOYT – Der Killer von Forest Grove« verbindet Elemente aus »Freitag, der 13.« und Gillian Flynns »Cry Baby« zu einem Slasher-Roman in der Tradition der heimlichen Videotheken-Hits der Achtzigerjahre. »Erinnert an die glorreichen Zeiten der Horror-Taschenbücher, jedoch mit frischem Blut und einem neuen Protagonisten ...
