SHIVER REVIEWS
A Novel by Brian Harper
A great book, extremely well written, exciting, entertaining! Brian Harper is the best at his genre by far. SHIVER has pace, plot, depth, style, builds tension. It’s the top 1 or 2 of my favorite books. Of the popular authors, I’ve read, J. Patterson, Koontz, Grisham, Sanders, etc. - Harper is the most polished by far. ’Shiver’ has style, gets your heart really racing. The characters have depth and they’re believable. Wendy’s heroics are great. I’d give it an 11.
***************************
Edge of your seat action. Takes you inside the mind of killer and victim. It gives you a great sense of "being there". A great read.
***************************
A great book! Draws you in from page one! What follows will keep even the most restless reader on the edge of their seat. A realistic, thrilling novel - a definite "don’t miss" for suspense fans.

"SHIVER" SCREENPLAY SYNOPSIS
Wendy Alden, a young, attractive secretary in Des Moines lacking in self-confidence and self-esteem becomes victim of a savage killer who has claimed the lives of a number of other women. Somehow Wendy finds the resources of courage to fight back and escape.
Obsessed with killing Wendy, Franklin Rood, the killer, penetrates a police cordon set up to guard her by Det. Terry Maguire, the detective investigating the case. Again, she manages to escape, earning not only Rood’s grudging respect, but his twisted sense of love. He later kidnaps her and brings her to his hideout in the woods where he subjects her to a frightening ritual of psychological intimidation. She is finally rescued and Rood is captured after Maguire succeeds in tracking the killer through a series of wily detection techniques.
In a diabolically daring and cunning plan, Rood escapes jail, killing several policemen in the process. Again, determined to kill Wendy and armed to the teeth, he storms into her office building. During a ferocious display of carnage, Rood is finally killed by Wendy who retrieves a slain security guard’s gun and shoots down the monster of her living nightmare. During the course of her odyssey, Wendy starts as a mouse, finally transforming into a lioness.
