Highly recommended."-Ronald Malfi, bestselling author of Come with Me"John Durgin is the sort of storyteller that puts the hook in from the first word and refuses to let go untilthe last. His second novel, INSIDE THE DEVIL'S NEST, has sharp teeth that sink in deep and bite downhard. It cracks open the stubborn shell of the most jaded horror reader, exposing your greatest fears andplaying relentlessly with the tender nerves within. An incredible genre masterwork by an equallyincredible author!"-Ronald Kelly, Author of Fear, The Essential Sick Stuff, and Southern-Fried & Horrified"Every now and then a book comes along that doesn't pull its punches. John Durgin's, INSIDE THEDEVIL'S NEST, is one of those rare treats. It's a rip-roaring ride full of fury and fear and doesn't stop tolet you catch your breath. Part gritty mob drama, part supernatural horror, it's as much Ozark as it is TheShining, yet something wholly its own. Durgin has outdone himself with this one."-Nick Roberts, award-winning author of The Exorcist's House and Anathema."A journey through the worst nightmare of any father, INSIDE THE DEVIL'S NEST seduces with itsmysteries and atmosphere, then eviscerates with its ghastly horrors. John writes as if channeling thewhispers of a cult, and he terrifies with the malice of a soul-starved god..."-Felix Blackwell, author of Stolen Tongues"John Durgin's sophomore novel plays notes from King's The Shining, but adds a fresh harmony anddynamic new rhythms. INSIDE THE DEVIL'S NEST is a tale of family and loss, mob bosses and cult leaders, threaded throughout with genuine chills and near-unbearable tension."-Brennan LaFaro, Author of Noose and Slattery Falls
