Whatever you do, don't read this book to an impressionable child, especially one that's afraid of the dark or monsters in the closet and under the bed. This is a suspenseful, horrific page turner. But it's also a story of remarkable courage and endurance.Though only nine at the time his interminable ordeal begins, Spenser is smart and resourceful, but most of all he is a survivor. By the end of the story, though Spenser himself is afraid that he has become as much a monster as those who hunt and haunt him, that very fear proves that he has retained his humanity and is in fact a hero.
