His Father's Son

By: Bentley Little

Narrated by: Andrew Gibson

“On a par with such greats as Stephen King, Clive Barker and Peter Straub” (Midwest Book Review), Bentley Little brings his unnerving talents to the terrifying story of a dysfunctional family in crisis.

Steve Nye writes for an alumni magazine and his long-term relationship is on the steady path to marriage. But his quiet life takes an unexpected turn when he receives a phone call from his mother. His father attacked her and has been committed to a mental asylum. The doctor says he’s suffering from dementia. But Steve’s father seems so calm, clear-eyed, and perfectly lucid when he whispers, “I killed her....”

Is it simply another symptom of delusion and madness? To find the answer, Steve investigates the cryptic message leading him down a terrifying path of his own making—and of his own nightmares....

Another convoluted horror.

Bentley Little is an excellent writer. This one makes me think there may be bits of himself reflected in his main character. Not the type of book you want to put down. You could feel the confusion in Steven’s head. Little has that ability to take his readers right into his character’s situation. Good book.

Wow not at all what I expected

Was too much all over the place had hard time figuring out what was going on and ending really expected more from this author

👌

loved it. great read. Bentley does it again with his awesome story development. Bought the First Edition

A different one

Not Bentleys best novel. Nothing supernatural and sometimes a bit confusing. But still a ok story.

Best Bentley

Best Bentley Little I've read. It had twists that I didn't see coming. a real surprise.
