Summary: He could hear them, all around him; in front, behind, rushing along beside him. Chattering, laughing, screeching; talking to one another in their own high-pitched, enthusiastic squeal while he ran, scared beyond rational thought, scared out of his wits, scared to death.
Why you should read it: I like stories that drop the reader right into the middle of the action and just keep going, never giving a moment to catch a breath. As Jack runs for his life, he doesn't get a moment, either.
elfinessy has a wonderful horror movie way of describing the danger without ever really showing it, building this tension and drawing out the creeping fear. Then a mysterious stranger comes to save Jack...
