The Carnarvon Creeeper by Martin Murphy

In celebration of my friend and fellow indie having his book featured on Indies Unlimited Saturday Showcase, I am reposting my review of The Carnarvon Creeper. Hope you all can stop by and congratulate Martin and wish him well.
Set in the isolated west coast of Australia, The Carnarvon Creeper is the tale of one man's journey of soul searching after the tragic death of his wife. Joe Rafton, or "Chilli", embarks upon his solo drive in a rented Volkswagen Kombi campervan, starting in Perth and intent on covering the 570 mile trek to Carnarvon. The long stretches of mind numbing desert highway, straddling the coastline, seem to be providing Joe with the desired effects, as so often is the case for one pondering over existential matters.
But it is December and this desolate country is plagued by unexplained disappearances particularly during this month. Soon, Joe will wish that he had a travelling companion as his melancholy pilgrimage takes a turn to terror. What lurks beyond the sands of timeless loneliness that feeds upon those that are lost and weary?
The Carnarvon Creeper will grip you from page one and have you hungrily devouring its contents in one fell swoop. This is one novella that that demands reading. I am not joking. Pick up your copy today!

Thanks, Marilyn. Good to see it on the site.
Martin, I am happy for you :-)
Got to check out your feature on the Sunday Showcase over at Indies Unlimited.
Way to go!
This one sounds good! I've actually seen it somewhere... I recognize the cover...
The book looks pretty interesting. I'll have to add it to my list of books I'm dying to read when I can sit down for longer than 5 minutes! lol Sounds like you did an excellent job Martin if you gave Marilyn nightmares! I love scary stuff. :D
Marilyn, I'm not sure I should be pleased about giving you a nightmare or not! I'm glad you cared about the characters, and hope you can do a review if you have time. Thanks for posting.
Alan, I hope you read it, and perhaps leave a review if you get chance. There's a bit of background into the novella on my website at http://www.mmurphyauthor.com/. But you may want to read the story first.
Another intense sounding read. Liked on Facebook and added to TBR on Goodreads.
Not a problem Martin :-) Not sure which one of your stories I enjoyed more. I am partial to short stories and novellas that you can finish in one sitting. The Carnarvon Creeper combines that ability with a horror story that has a very caring, human element-a delicate balance that you seemed to have mastered.
Thanks for the support guys, and the links, much appreciated.
