Kirkus Reviews praises REST STOP

Kirkus Reviews recently published their review of Nat Cassidy‘s forthcoming novella, Rest Stop.

Read an excerpt of the review below, or read the full review on Kirkus‘s website.

Layers fright after fright, trapping the reader in a gnarly bathroom with creepy crawlies coming in and a possible serial killer on the other side of the door.

A blood-soaked freakout that does for gas stations what Jaws did for beaches.

We are very thankful to Kirkus for this fantastic review of Rest Stop, available October 15th in eBook and Paperback.
