A Door in Thorston Kindle Edition
Sten Carter's best friends Jeff Coyne and Vanessa Solomon are in love, and he's happy for them. He's happy when Jeff abandons the city for a quiet life in the country village of Thorston. The rural peace seems the best place for Jeff to recover from his breakdown, and maybe even make a life for him and Vanessa.
Then Jeff disappears.
As he searches for answers, Sten will uncover his friend's obsession with the village's past - and Thorston is a place of many hidden histories. There is the ruined Hall, and the men who let it burn. There are the unexplained murders that left the village priest a broken man. And there is the lost old lady, endlessly repeating a ritual she no longer understands.
Sten and Vanessa must unravel what links these tragic events throughout Thorston's past, because now more than Jeff's life is at stake. Somewhere in Thorston there is a door, and if it opens, they will not survive....

- Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2014When Jeff Coyne is having some problems in life and needs an escape, he moves into a cottage in the little village of Thorston. It quickly becomes clear, however, that Thorson is not the idyllic village it appears to be. Something evil lurks there…
Although reminiscent of the fine horror/mysteries of Phil Rickman, in A Door In Thorston, Lawrence Anzen proves that he's got a very unique take on modern horror. In the beginning, it feels like quiet horror, that creeping, suspenseful kind of horror that sneaks up on you. However, each chapter ratchets the story up, until it becomes a pulse pounding and very scary read.
At its heart, this is a haunted house story - or perhaps even a haunted town. However, it's not like any haunted house story you've read before. I'm not going to spoil the book for you by telling you the nature of the evil in Thorston. I'll simply say it's unique, modern, and thoroughly satisfying.
The writing style is engaging and intelligent and the characters will capture you from page one.
This is simply well written. I hope more people discover Anzen as he's a fantastic storyteller!
* The author provided a review copy of this novel. I'm glad he reached out as this was truly a great read.
