Paul Finch is a former cop and journalist, now full-time writer. Having originally written for the television series THE BILL plus children's animation and DOCTOR WHO audio dramas, he went on to write horror, but is now best known for his crime / thriller fiction.
He won the British Fantasy Award twice and the International Horror Guild Award, but since then has written two parallel series of hard-hitting crime novels, the Heck and the Lucy Clayburn novels, of which three titles have become best-sellers.
Paul lives in Wigan, Lancashire, UK with his wife and children.
The setting of this story is perfect. A relaxing holiday, beautiful location, caves by the sea, a beast hidden in the cave. It had everything to make a great horror story. Sadly execution of it didn't reach the level of the plot and reader's expectations.
The good thing about this book is that the author tried to finish it quickly instead of simply dragging it like some other authors.
