Thirteen Days by Sunset Beach

It’s Ray and Sandra’s first holiday on a Greek island. Why do islanders follow them wherever they go? Why do Sandra and the grandchildren have strangely similar dreams? Has Sandra been granted a wish she didn’t know she made? Before their holiday is over, some of the family may learn too much about the secret that keeps the island alive. “One of the world’s finest exponents of the classic British ghost story” “Britain’s greatest living horror writer” “Britain’s leading horror novelist” “Ramsey Campbell’s work is tremendous.” “The Grand Master of British horror... the greatest living writer of horror fiction.” “Britain’s greatest horror writer... Realistic, subtle and arcane.” “Ramsey Campbell is the nearest thing we have to an heir to M. R. James.” “The most sophisticated and highly regarded of British horror writers” “Britain’s most respected living horror writer” “Easily the best horror writer working in Britain today” “Britain’s leading horror writer... His novels have been getting better and better” “One of Britain’s most accomplished horror writers” “The John Le Carre of horror fiction” “One of the best real horror writers at work today” “The greatest living exponent of the British weird fiction tradition” “Ramsey Campbell has succeeded more brilliantly than any other writer in bringing the supernatural tale up to date without sacrificing the literary standards that early masters made an indelible part of the tradition” “England’s contemporary king of the horror genre” “An absolute master of modern horror. And a damn fine writer at that.” “Campbell writes the most terrifying horror tales of anyone now alive” “He is unsurpassed in the subtle manipulation of mood... You forget you’re just reading a story” “One of the few real writers in our field... In some ways Ramsey Campbell is the best of us all” “Ramsey Campbell has a talent for terror – he knows how to give you nightmares while you’re still awake... Only a few writers can lay claim to such a level of consummate craftsmanship” “For sheer ability to compose disturbing, evocative prose, he is unmatched in the horror/fantasy field... He turns the traditional horror novel inside out, and makes it work brilliantly.” “Campbell has solidly established himself to be the best writer working in this field today” “When Mr Campbell pits his fallible, most human characters against enormous forces bent on incomprehensible errands the results are, as you might expect, often frightening, and, as you might not expect, often touching; even heartwarming.” “A horror writer in the classic mould... Britain’s premier contemporary exponent of the art of scaring you out of your skin” “Campbell is a rightful tenant of M. R. James country, the genuine badlands of the human psyche.” “One of the world’s finest exponents of the classic British ghost story... His writing explores the potential for fear in the mundane, the barely heard footsteps, the shadow flitting past at the edge of one’s sight.” “In Campbell’s hands words take on a life of their own, creating images that stay with you, feelings that prey on you, and people you hope never ever to meet.” “Campbell is literate in a field which has attracted too many comic-book intellects, cool in a field where too many writers – myself included – tend toward panting melodrama... Good horror writers are quite rare, and Campbell is better than just good.” “Easily the finest practising British horror novelist and the one whose work can most wholeheartedly be recommended to those who dislike the genre... His misclassification as a genre writer obscures his status as the finest magic realist Britain possesses this side of J. G. Ballard” “One of the few who can scare and disturb as well as make me laugh out loud. His humour is very black but very funny, and that’s a rare gift to have” “He writes of our deepest fears in a precise, clear prose that somehow manages to be beautiful and terrifying at the same time. He is a powerful, original writer, and you owe it to yourself to make his acquaintance” “One of the century’s great literary exponents of the gothic and horrific” “There are a few writers who are special. They make the world in their books; or rather, they open a window or a door or a magic casement, and they show you the world in which they live. Ramsey Campbell, for example, writes stories that, read in quantity, will re-form your world into a grey and ominous place in which strange shapes flicker at the corner of your eyes, and a patch of smoke or a blown plastic shopping bag takes on some kind of ghastly significance.” “An absolute master of modern horror. And a damn fine writer at that”- Guillermo del Toro
