An innocent woman... or a vampire? The Stake is a spine-chilling tale of horror by Richard Laymon, perfect for fans of Stephen King and Clive Barker. 'Laymon uses a typewriter ribbon soaked in cold blood' - Burt Hirschfeld In an abandoned hotel in a Californian ghost town, horror writer Larry Dunbar and his friends make a chilling discovery. By chance they stumble on a coffin hidden under the stairs. Within lies the corpse of a naked female - with a stake through its heart. Was she the innocent victim of a gruesome murder? Or was she a vampire? There's only one way for Larry to solve the mystery - he must pull out the stake... What readers are saying about The Stake: 'A totally brilliant and vibrant read, the storyline was always nail biting' 'The characters are richly developed, and the story is a real page turner; so much so you end up hoping you never reach the end' 'Richard Laymon is the king of horror'
