Description

“James Murray and Darren Wearmouth’s latest, Don’t Move, is a lean, cut-throated horror show, written with scenes so cinematic that they blaze across the brain. I read it in one sitting, obeying the title’s directive, and staying glued to my chair. Spine-tingling and wildly paced, here is your next must-read.” James Rollins, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Last Odyssey

From the authors of the bestselling Awakened trilogy

In this spine-tingling horror novel from the actor best known as “Murr” on the hit television shows Impractical Jokers and The Misery Index, James S. Murray, and co-writer Darren Wearmouth, a prehistoric arachnid terrifies a stranded group in a West Virginia canyon.

Megan Forrester has barely survived the unthinkable. Six months ago, she witnessed a horrific accident that killed her husband and son, and lives with the guilt of knowing she could have done more to save them. Now, Megan hopes to mend the pieces of her broken spirit by attending a local church group’s annual camping trip. But the church group members—riddled with dark secrets of their own—make a catastrophic navigational mistake, leaving them stranded in an untouched canyon in the West Virginian national forest.

Isolated from any chance of help or rescue, Megan and the others quickly realize why this side of the canyon has never been surveyed by humankind: it’s home to a terrifying prehistoric arachnid that patiently stalks its prey through even the slightest movement or vibration in the forest. And it’s desperate for a meal.

Grief-stricken and haunted by her tragic loss, Megan now faces her ultimate test of endurance. Can she outwit a bloodthirsty creature hellbent on ensuring that no one gets out alive? When a single wrong turn can mean death, she only has one option: DON’T MOVE.

“What’s scarier than a wilderness camping trip gone wrong? How about a camping trip with a living horror-movie creature waiting for its dinner? These guys pulled out all the stops with this one. Shuddering good fun!” R. L. Stine, #1 bestselling author of the Goosebumps series

“Afraid of spiders? Don’t read this book. I mean it. Walk away now.” Brad Meltzer, #1 bestselling author of The Escape Artist

“What’s scarier than a thousand spiders in a canyon? One big one trying to eat its way out.” Steve Alten, New York Times bestselling author of the MEG series

“A gleeful creature feature…Murray and Wearmouth succeed at creating a creepy atmosphere.” Publishers Weekly

“The prose is tight and speedy, delivering the sort of visceral charge familiar to fans of the paperback horror boom of the late ’90s and early 2000s and writers like Brian Keene. Recommended for horror fans or for anyone looking for a fast-paced, diverting, and gruesome read.” Booklist

“A fun, thrilling, horror-filled ride. Sometimes that is exactly what you are looking for. As if I didn’t hate spiders enough. I highly recommend it if you enjoy creature horror stories. You might think twice about camping in an unknown region.” San Francisco Book Review

“Don’t Move brought me back to the childhood movies I would devour when I was young…If you like movies such as Arachnophobia, this book will be a total blast for you! A thrilling read with a fun ending—highly recommended!” Suspense Magazine
