Ever had that feeling of being watched but when you turn around no one's there?
I have.
It was raining, and I was working a murder scene around midnight when that prickle ran up my spine. If I'd listened to that feeling, if I'd thought back to my past, maybe I could have prevented the terror that was to come.
Back at the office, I found a death threat on my desk.
I had no idea who sent it or why they wanted to kill me.
But I was about to find out.
What people say about The Note.
Enjoy at your own risk!
A new master's in Thriller Town and he's here to stay. A pulse-quickening, brain-teasing adventure. Thriller writing doesn't get any better than this.
Eddie quickly becomes a friend, someone who you listen to and understand - someone to trust.
The Note and The Lift do not feel like short stories. They are carefully crafted glimpses into the unique world of Eddie Collins.
This is a fast paced, hard to put down story. It kept me up late into the night as I needed to see the outcome.
Sarcasm and black humour, action aplenty, this is a winner.
Power-packed, explosive introduction to Eddie Collins.
Andrew Barrett writes with a word paint brush and really takes you into the story he's painting! This one is dark, claustrophobic, exciting, startling, with flashes of humour and a surprise ending which I didn't see coming.
What a gripping read I loved it.
I felt I was actually there with Eddie, although he didn't listen to me when I told him to RUN.
Great short story full of action and suspense. Will definitely read the full stories of CSI Collins
Every time you think you have something figured out you are so wrong. If this were a movie you would be at the edge of your seat.
I loved this Eddie story and I want his dictionary! Eddie says and thinks what we would like to say and do.
Eddie's frustration with Officer 'Dibble' is a joy, I love his sarcasm. A brilliant story with an extra twist at the end that I did not anticipate.
If you like a little shiver, and the hairs standing up on the back of your neck, you can't go wrong here!
Throughout the story the suspense is ratcheted up, until it is almost palpable, and only relieved by Eddie's irreverence and (nervous) wisecracks. I really like the Eddie character, he is human and believable and has a healthy dose of mistrust for authority,
I love Eddie Collins. He is one of my favourite characters and I do struggle with the idea that he's not real.
There is a lot of dark humour in this which had me laughing aloud.
If you're looking for a short story that grips you from the first page....look no more, you've found it.
The Note is jam packed with drama, hard hitting and often brutal scenes, twists and turns abound make this a highly charged story.
The Note is a tautly-plotted short story, revelatory of CSI work, and a revealing look at abnormal psychology.
