Review
"The neck-whipping action and shifting points of view give the reader a wide-angle perspective...invoking maximum terror on every page...For fans of horror-thriller series like those by Jonathan Maberry and Mira Grant." ―Booklist (Starred Review)"Red Hands is an absolutely riveting novel. I couldn't put it down. A thriller filled to the brim with equal parts terror and heart. Only Christopher Golden could weave together compelling characters and a gripping plot like this.” ―Mallory O'Meara, bestselling author of The Lady from the Black Lagoon"Ben Walker is back in Christopher Golden's Red Hands, a plague novel with a twist you won't see coming. This novel is part thriller, part horror, part science fiction -- in other words, as immediate and timely as this morning's paper. Except in Golden's world, the good guys give as good as they get. And the ride is a hell of a lot more fun." ―Nathan Ballingrud, author of Wounds“This barnstorming thriller-with-a-twist starts with a whammy and doesn't let up until the last page. Clear your schedule - you won't be able to put this down once you start it. Reads like a Stephen King novel on speed.” ―Sarah Lotz, author of The White Road and Day Four"From page one, Red Hands grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. The pacing is perfect. The action is chaotic, vivid, and incredibly satisfying. Full of intrigue, governmental scheming, and biological terror, this is one dark thriller I’ll be talking about―and recommending―for years to come." ―Rio Youers, author of Lola on Fire and The Forgotten Girl"Ben Walker embarks on his most terrifying mission yet, when merely touching the ones closest to you will cause them to die. Filled with pain and fury, heartache and love, Red Hands is a scorchingly potent thriller." ―Tim Lebbon, New York Times bestselling author of Eden “Red Hands is a brilliant, devious, and deeply disturbing thriller that blurs the line between the fantastic and our very real world. Highly recommended.” ―Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of V-Wars and Rage “Christopher Golden has done it again! Red Hands is a full-throttle thriller that will leave you breathless. The opening chapter gave me nightmares, and by the time I reached the final page, I was too frightened to turn the lights out.” ―Richard Chizmar, New York Times bestselling author of Gwendy’s Magic Feather and The Girl on the Porch
