Paperback. Condizione: Used; Good. Writing in his superb introduction, Brian J. Frost describes Pia! as "perhaps the most gruesome werewolf story ever written." It's certainly very entertaining: When Hutch and his beautiful wife, Ruth, are told by psychic researcher Dr. Cheeves that one of their closest friends is a lycanthrope, their response is to invite their six most intimate acquaintances to the apartment at the Bell Manor Arms on the night of the next full moon. "Slung back and over the bed was Davidson . what was left of him. His face was a gory mess, completely unrecognisable. It was as if some monstrous claw had torn his features away, only white cartilage, stringing, gave evidence as to where his nose had been.
