Publisher's summary

"I kill, therefore I am...."

Voices slam through the corridor of his wounded mind. The words of his dead sister cry out. His parents' taunts fill the silent room where he sits and waits - waits for the murderous rage, filling him with strength, driving him to kill, to touch the cold flesh, taste the warm blood - to feel alive again....

A witness has seen him, but his killing only turns her on and now she wants to protect him. His wife suspects him, but the private detective she hired cannot stop him. Joe MacAree fears nothing - except that he may no longer be human. The thirst that drives him is relentless, moving deeper and deeper into his own shattering, private realm, where each murder is a delicious new gift of life, where revulsion is beauty, and the obsession will never let him go.

Critic reviews

"A harrowing ride through cutting-edge psychological horror, this one's got a vicious bite. Rick R. Reed's Obsessed is a twisted nightmare." Douglas Clegg

Yes, it's easier to follow the plot and the characters.

Strong language, graphic sex and violence!

So good!

Rick R. Reed as usual kills it with this one! Paired with Jack DE Golia's narration, this was all the more enthralling and captivating
Don't hesitate to pick this up, especially if you are a fan of Rick R. Reed's work.

Good 'ol horror

This is a very well written story, psychological horror at its best, no doubt.

Then, why only three stars? Because I need to like at least ONE character in any story. Here, I didn't manage to like a single one of them; I liked Joe's wife for a little while, but then, that too went away and I was left with a lot of people for whom I couldn't care less. A perfect case of 'It's me, not the book' *laughs*

Jack De Golia did a great job with the narration, though.

Not my thing

The narration was fine. I like horror stories but I just didn't enjoy this one. Just wasn't my thing.
