Reviewed on Richard & Judy's Book Club 2009 on Wednesday 4 February.
A cleverly told debut novel. The narrator of the story is an attractive man who has been horrifically burned in a car crash. While in hospital a mysterious woman visits him claiming to have been his lover 700 years ago. Is she delusional or is what she is telling him possible? A refreshingly original story, well written and guaranteed to keep you guessing.
The nameless and beautiful narrator of The Gargoyle is driving along a dark road when he is distracted by what seems to be a flight of arrows. He crashes into a ravine and wakes up in a burns ward, undergoing the tortures of the damned. His life is over – he is now a monster.
