Digital Children by Jacob Rayne

This is the story of Marsha and Josh. Newlyweds and having just lost their newborn son, Caleb, they will do anything to turn the clock back. They are given that chance in the form of a creepy scientist called Dr Laverick. He offers to answer their prayers and bring back Caleb as a Digital Child. All is well for the first two years, then things suddenly start to go horribly wrong....

This was amazing. The creep factor was ramped up to extreme, to the point where I was almost peeking through my fingers at certain bits. I think this was because it's one of those stories where you think to yourself, 'What if?'. I was glued to the book and the characters from beginning to end. Marsha and Josh were great as the tragic heroes, and Dr Laverick was so smarmy and creepy, in places I just wanted to punch him on the noggin! The pace was unrelenting, and the ending was both explosive and heartbreaking in equal measure. I am fast becoming a firm fan of Jacob's work, and I am eagerly awaiting his next release!
