Synopsis "Numb - A Dark Noir Thriller"
Welcome to the show... Calvin Court is a massage therapist with a few dark secrets: He battles severe depression. He medicates with too much booze. And he's got a serious thing for one of his clients. The client claims the feeling is mutual-until she frames Calvin for murder and blackmails him. What does she want? Not much. Calvin just has to be her new "star" in an underground industry catering to the very rich and oh-so-very depraved. Maybe he was just better off at the bar. From Jeff Menapace, bestselling author of the Wildlife and Bad Games series, comes Numb, a dark and disturbing thriller with tongue firmly planted in cheek...until it's ripped out. What readers, authors, and reviewers are saying about Jeff Menapace and the Numb series: "Merciless, twisted, yet absolutely gripping...the ending will knock you flat." ★★★★★ "A crazy, hardcore thriller with a fantastic twist at the end I did NOT see coming." ★★★★★ "The subject matter is insane! Just when I thought I had the ending figured out, BAM! How wrong I was! You have to read this!" ★★★★★ "I read in no time. That's the thing with Jeff, he is a page turner. Think the late great Laymon. Yes, he is that good." ★★★★★ "If you like Stephen King, Blake Crouch, or Dean Koontz, then you'll love Jeff Menapace." ★★★★★ "I had to keep reading even though I knew it was going to get more twisted. Jeff Menapace is right up there with Stephen King." ★★★★★ "If you love the darker stuff, the noir, the seedy, the double cross, the violent and twisted, then is for you. I loved this book." ★★★★★ "A cross between Fight Club and American Psycho...A great read!" ★★★★★ "What a ride! Nicely done horror thriller with a sick semi-love story, and a kick in the gut ending!" ★★★★★ I hope you enjoy the Numb, my friends.
