I didn’t want to kill him, didn’t mean to kill him. But I did. “Baring your soul fixes nothing.”
Relax, nobody is dead (yet!) that was just an excerpt from the book which I just got, a triller called FEAR by Jeff Abbott (UK version)
FEAR
“…Fear is an adrenaline-inducing suspense thriller of the highest order. Told in staccato, action-packed chapters that are seething with angst, obsession, shocking brutality, and compassion in the unlikeliest of places, Fear will have readers on the edge of their collective seats until the very last pages, which includes some jaw-dropping plot twists that would make even O. Henry proud—yet another hair-raising gem by the new master of suspense.”

Looks like my type of book… so, let’s waste time in an exciting and terrifying way now.

Programmers should be trusted. If your brain surgeon told you the operation you need takes five hours, would you pressure him to do it in three?
