About this listen

Bloomsbury presents House of Flies by Graham Masterton, read by Mark Meadows.

'God, he's good.' STEPHEN KING

IF YOU SEE THEM - RUN...

A clergyman is murdered in his bed in the dead of night, triggering a chilling chain of events, each more bizarre and unnerving than the last – brutal killings, corpses vanishing, decomposed bodies digging their way out of graves.

These shocking events seem unconnected but, at each scene, people report witnessing swarms of flies – hundreds, thousands, even millions of them.

As DI Patel and DS Pardoe hunt for the mastermind behind these atrocious crimes, they are forced to ask: is this person human – or is all of this linked to the mysterious figure caught on CCTV, running at speed without moving its legs?

And can they stop the swarm before they themselves are consumed?

For fans of Joe Hill, Peter James and Stephen King, Graham Masterton is a master of the horror genre whose books have sold millions of copies across the globe.

It was disgusting, gross, and thoroughly terrific! I really liked this next Patel and Pardoe book; read brilliantly by my new favourite Mark Meadows. (It sounded as though he had a slight cold when reading this one) Graham Masterton certainly knows what he's doing. Hurry up with the next one please; I'm waiting!

Gross but terrific!

I was looking forward to this book, as I really loved his earlier books. I found the story a bit rinse and repeat. I think the story could have been longer. There was not enough fleshing out of the characters. It just wasn’t scary.

Disappointed
