“Via some skillfully twisty, crackerjack plotting, fine character work, and a willingness not to pull punches, Fellside builds to a climax that’s both satisfyingly worked out and shockingly emotionally intense. [Carey has a] knack for carefully depicted, believably flawed characters.”
— RT Book Reviews (4½ stars, Top Pick!)

“Reader Finty Williams, better known as the voice of Angelina Ballerina, uses her extensive voice acting experience to give a different feel to each character. Verdict: Carey brings nothing but quality and thrills all around. Highly recommended for fans of horror and the occult, legal and prison stories, and gothic fiction.”
