Summary

"We’d been in the house two weeks when Tommy pulled the first bones from the garden".

When Cassie Baker buys the house on Cedar Street, it’s partly because it reminds her of the house she grew up in in the ‘80s. It reminds her of happier times, when her Mom was still alive, before the cancer had taken her. It seems like the perfect place to raise her baby boy, Sam.

That is, until a friend unearths the remains of a dog, buried in a shallow grave in the backyard.

After the bones come the cockroaches...

The Cockroach King is a new novella written by Andrew Cull, the award-winning author of Remains and Bones.

Amazing visualisation and descriptions

I was given a free copy of this for an honest review. I’ll never look at cockroaches the same way again. The way things are described by the author is brilliant and really adds to the atmosphere of the book. The suspense builds through the book and culminates in an explosive ending. Really happy with the ending of the book too. It wrapped everything up nicely
