Frank Balenger, the resolute but damaged hero of David Morrell's acclaimed Creepers, now finds himself trapped in a nightmarish game of fear and death. To save himself and the woman he loves, he must play by the rules of a god-like Game Master with an obsession for unearthing the past. But sometimes the past is buried for a reason.
Scavenger is a brilliant, frightening hunter-hunted tale that layers modern technology over the dusty artifacts of earlier times. The result is a surreal palimpsest, one that contains the secret of survival for Balenger and a handful of unwilling players who race against the game's clock to solve the puzzle of the time capsule, only to discover that time is the true scavenger.

If you're looking for an oddball thriller, you don't have to scavenge--it's right here in David Morrell's latest tale. Frank Balenger, hero of CREEPERS, is back, and this time he's pitted against time and a draconian genius to find a time capsule that has been missing for a hundred years. Balenger and his crew have forty hours to find the capsule, or else. Patrick Lawlor is highly appropriate as the no-nonsense Balenger. His reading is glib, but forceful. When called upon, he ratchets up the tense moments and capitalizes on the excitement with ease. With his help, the author keeps listeners guessing to the end. A.L.H.
