‘The Eddingses are a definite gain to aficionados of crime writing ... well written, convincing fiction. What the Eddingses do best is to successfully fuse a serial killer story with subtle supernatural overtones.’ SFX
‘This remarkable book by the Eddingses demonstrates that there is plenty of life in the concept [serial killer thriller] yet. Handled with imagination and panache ... this is a thriller rich in elements of the bizarre that will delight.’ Good Book Guide
A brutal serial killer stalks the Seattle nights. Regina Greenleaf was one of the victims. Her beautiful twin sister, Renata is deeply traumatised.
Renata barely knows she's alive. She talks only rarely, and then always in twin-speak, the special language she and Regina made up long before they'd learned to speak English.
When there had been two of them, they used to swap names. At school, they'd swapped the ribbons in their hair that were the only way of telling them apart. They were so close to each other, they might as well have been one person.
Mark, a college lecturer in English, is Renata's friend and her post-trauma protector. He's the only person Renata recognises and will talk to. She agrees to attend his classes, and with the help of Mark's room-mates Renata seems to be coming to terms with her loss.
But the number of murders in Seattle rises, and Mark has some dreadful suspicions. If he says anything, it's guaranteed to send Renata back to the hospital. But if he doesn't, there may be blood on his conscience...
Part murder mystery, ghost story and psychological thriller, 'Regina's Song' masterfully fuses together elements that elicit our deepest, darkest fears...
In 'Regina's Song', David and Leigh Eddings have written a tense, chilling story of a nightmare coming true.
"'Make them stop', she pleaded. 'The wolves are howling again. Please make them stop'. Then she suddenly started whispering, her lips very close to my ear – and she wasn't whispering in any language I could understand."
