Bestselling author Hynd offers a mesmerizing ghost story and gripping detective tale that takes readers on a hair-raising journey into the darkest recesses of one man's soul. With only a few months to go before his retirement, Detective Sgt. Frank O'Hara faces the most impossible challenge of his career: to find and stop a killer who was sent to the electric chair years before.
This is the best book that I have ever read. I kept putting off buying the book because it just didn't look interesting. Then one day, when a long bus ride was ahead of me, I bought the book because there didn't seem to be anything better. I could not put the book down and the ending actually made me feel like crying.... not because it was a bad ending but because the main character seemed so real to me that I actually felt his emotions. I recommend "A Room for the Dead" to anyone who mentions that they are a "reader". I have read it five times now.
A Room for the Dead

I love this book. I started reading it and I couldn't put it down. It is wonderfully written. I don't read as much I used to unless I find a great book like this one. I stumbled over it at my aunts house. i saw the cover and read the back and I was hooked on it. My mom wants to read it and she is a usual Stephen King fan! I recommend it to people who like to read a good book!
Surprised to like it so much

I have read most of Noel Hynd's thrillers, and each one seems to get better and better. This happend to be the first one I had read, and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked it. This isn't the type of book I normally go for, but Hynd does an excellent job reeling the reader in until I just couldn't put it down. The intriguing storyline, with a touch of supernatural mystery, makes for quite a chilling read.
It will keep you wanting more.

I really enjoyed this book alot. I came across this book in a small book store. It really grabbed my attention when i read the back cover. well i read it and i could not put the book down. It keeps you wanting to find out who really is behind the killings from start to finish. It is really one of the first thrillers you can pick up that are really hard to put down at first.you will just love it to death.
