Bold and brilliant horror from bestselling author Richard Laymon
'If you've missed Laymon, you've missed a treat' Stephen King
When Neal shoots a man assaulting a woman, as a reward the woman gives him a magic bracelet that enables him to see through other people's eyes and experience their feelings; to take 'body rides'.
But the man he shot is not dead - he's alive and breathing vengeance. Neal's only chance of survival is to use the bracelet and go inside his would-be-killer's skull...
Praise for Body Rides: A gripping horror novel of the supernatural and macabre
