Frank Thilliez pulls no punches in his new horror thriller, a chilling and haunting huis-clos about three strangers and a dog trapped and chained in a freezing cave, no seeming connection between them and not the faintest idea who brought them there and why. As darkness and fear take their toll on the three men's minds, death appears more and more like the only possible escape from this nightmare. The race for survival throws open doors to their pasts which all men would have preferred to keep locked forever.

Not to be read after dark on a camping trip.

Product Description: A man wakes up at the bottom of a cave, in a hostile environment, with two strangers and his faithful dog for sole company. He is chained by the wrist to a wall of the cave, one of the other men is chained by the ankle, and the third man is free but is wearing a horrific mask which will blow up should he walk away from the other two. Who brought them there, and why?

Soon another question will ask itself, more and more urgent: how far must they go to survive?

Frank Thilliez manipulate characters and reader in a chilling exploration of the human soul.
