Brilliant look into true horror-a man's mind

When Nick was ten and Daley was eight, the Ringer siblings knew they were different from other families. Their mother was an abusive drunk, who earned a living selling her body. Her actions made her children the Bloomington, Texas town's pariahs. Daley always hung in the shadows, ready to protect Nick from himself. He would lie for his older brother in order to provide him with an alibi. Nick's forte was to strangle his tormentors' pets because misery was miserable company. In Nam, Nick and Daley served as Recon Officers. However, when the siblings were separated from their squad, they were trapped deep in Cong territory. In order to survive, Nick had to use the garrote to make a quiet kill of his enemy. When they were rescued, Nick had a breakdown and was hospitalized. He remained confined in the mental ward until Daley returned home. The brothers move to Houston at the same time that someone is decapitating the heads of innocent people, using an MO similar to Nick's Nam experience. WIREMAN is a taut thriller that keeps the reader on edge from the first page till the novel is finished. This type of book is the true horror novel because the monster is a human, who preys on anyone without the slightest shred of remorse. Billie Sue Mosiman captures the essence of the sociopath so well, readers will buy extra locks to secure their homes in order to gain a slightly disturbed sleep. Fans of realistic horror tales, need to read WIREMAN, one of the sub-genre's best of 1997. Harriet Klausner
