About this listen

From the creator of This Is Horror comes a new nightmare for the digital age.

Tell me what you like.

After a teacher receives a weirdly arousing video, his life descends into paranoia and obsession. More videos follow - each containing information no stranger could possibly know. But who's sending them? And what do they want? The answers may destroy everything and everyone he loves.

The Girl in the Video is The Ring meets Fatal Attraction for the iPhone generation.

Fresh from reading They're Watching, Michael David Wilson's collaborative effort with Bob Pastorella, I was fortunate enough to have MDW offer me the chance to review The Girl in the Video on audio. I think, although I've only just finished, I liked this one even more. I finished it in one day, so it's fast, and that definitely works in its favour.

What Wilson does so well in this one is similar to the plot in They're Watching: as the chaos unfurls, the mystery deepens, and the plot drags you deeper and deeper into the drama, compelling you to keep listening and find out just what the hell is happening.

The book is laced with wry humour - and enough Metal references to keep someone like me very happy - and all of that only softens you up for the killer blow coming in the denouement.

And that doesn't even mention the very satisfactory ending. I was on tenterhooks in the last few pages, and Wilson's use of misdirection while referencing some classic mystery films is expertly executed.

Another great one, and after these last two, I'll be back for more and more and more.

This is fantastic
