About this ebook

Riley Haig is a mild-mannered wage slave returning to his hometown following a decade-long absence. From the moment he arrives, everything feels off by a degree or two. Dark secrets lurk behind every corner, long-forgotten figures re-emerge from his murky past, and he is haunted by the eerie notion that something terrible could happen at any given moment.

Then the bodies begin piling up.

Langdon Pryce is a bestselling novelist in creative freefall, in the middle of writing a story about a mild-mannered wage slave returning to his hometown following a decade-long absence. A crisis of confidence forces him to re-examine his own life and values, spurring him on to produce what he hopes could be his greatest work to date.

Then things get weird.

Ratings and reviews

I am confused on one thing: what exactly did Riley do to the killer to make them target him? what was in the envelope and why was there an excerpt of Taliyah's novel in the middle of that scene? is that just one of those "you'll never know" things or did I miss something? overall, it was a decent read. prefer this one to the pretenders by far. all against all has been my favorite, Hollywood hack job being a close second. about to read the war on horror books next.

I have just got into a reading phase mania and the first book I read was All Against All. I am now on the 6th book of Nathan Allen. Love his use of words and phrases like "Limelight Deprivation Syndrome" and "Excessive Praise and Participation Award Generation". love that they're free too😁

Having read the initial arguments between the disputed authors I was eager to see what all the fuss was about. What a disappointment ! I didn't get past the first page before giving up. The writing style is so stilted as to be almost unreadable. I personally would be embarrassed to claim any connection with this drivel.
