Close Reach: A Novel

Close Reach: A Novel

In a riveting tale of suspense and terror on the high seas, Bram Stoker Award nomineeÂ Jonathan Moore pits human beings against natureâ€”and something far deadlier: one another.
Â
Kelly Pratihari-Reid and her husband sail their yacht into Antarctic waters, thinking their gravest concerns will be ice and stormsâ€”and their cracked marriage. A British girl shrieking across a short-range VHF frequency ends that illusion. Itâ€™s coming, she screams. It saw us and itâ€™s coming back! Her voice is drowned by a tide of signal-jamming static, and Kelly sees a target on the radar screen: A ship is coming for them.
Â
Thus begins an unforgettable cat-and-mouse game across stormy polar seas and dire landfalls. Kellyâ€™s pursuers will test her to the limits of her enduranceâ€”and beyond. For the ship in her wake is crewed by pirates, with a young leader trained to use the most sadistic tortures in pursuit of his ultimate objective . . . a goal as shocking as it is horrific.

â€œSet on the icy polar seas, bristling with suspense, Jonathan Mooreâ€™s Close Reach is as horrifying and claustrophobic as any haunted house story. The plot pitches and yaws with twist after twist, and by midpoint the reader is a goner. Leave the lights on, lock the doors, feed the cats, this is an irresistible page-turner of the first order. Highly recommended!â€â€”Jay Bonansinga, New York Times bestselling co-author of The Walking Dead: Fall of the Governor, Part Two and author of The Sinking of the Eastland

â€œReaders will need their sea legs for this hugely enjoyable, roller-coaster voyage of a novel. Close Reach is a brutal tale of redemption and revenge with a heroine to root for at every shocking twist and turn. Jonathan Mooreâ€™s writing is as rich as it is raw and thrillingâ€”and storms along at a breakneck pace that will leave you gasping for air.â€â€”Frazer Lee, Bram Stoker Awardâ€“nominated author of The Lamplighters, Panic Button, and The Jack in the Green
