Book Report: The Treatment.

[PogromStallone]

Midsummer, and in an unassuming house on a quiet residential street on the edge of Brockwell Park in south London, a husband and wife are discovered. Badly dehydrated, they've been bound and beaten, the husband is close to death. But worse is to come: their young son is missing.

When DI Jack Caffery of the Met's AMIT squad is called in to investigate, the similarities to events in his own past make it impossible for him to view this new crime with the necessary detachment. And as Jack digs deeper, as he attempts to hold his own life together in the face of ever more disturbing revelations about both the past and the present, the real nightmare begins...


Better than the last one, a lot darker too. Had one chapter that was the most terrifying thing I've read in some time, wish there was more of it. The characters aren't that interesting but the story makes up for it. Most reveals in the book were delivered in an anticlimactic way. 3/5.

I think I might read one of Pat's books next, wish me luck.

See, tranny faggots? We review other books here. Some us have even written short stories of our own! We’re just mostly huge (almost as large as Rick himself) fans of known retard, Patrick S Tomlinson.

Sounds like a beach or airport read. May investigate

I like the idea of branching out of sci-fi and dabbling in other genres of literature, since that's what we do here in Literary Criticism.


Anyone ever read this? Worth picking up?
