From the back cover
"Hopwas Wood is a place of mystery and for generations, tales have been told about an ancient gypsy burial site deep within.
"Jenny Lawson always knew she had Romany blood flowing through her veins and when given a secret book by her dying Uncle can't resist the urge to mix the ancient potions described inside. In a matter of hours the virginal jenny is transformed into a knife wielding nymphomaniac.
"Entranced by the mysterious Cornelius, Jenny uses all her womanly charms to persuade the wood's owner to let the gypsy's set up camp on their holy ground. Ex-boyfriend Chris, an investigative reporter, is horrified by the changes in the girl he once loved and embarks on a quest for the truth only to discover the terror that lies deep within The Sucking Pit!"
Review
Sucking
is a solid, fun pulp novel with stock characters, salacious flirtations (its sex scenes are R-rated, not X-rated), blood and horror. Its plot moves
lightning quick, sometimes too fast – e.g., when Jenny is possessed it is
little more than an awkward eyeblink transition; also, when Chris and Pat fall
in love, seconds after meeting, it feels forced and rushed. If you do not take
it seriously, Sucking is a worthwhile
guilty, sometimes awkward-sentence read, best borrowed from a local library or
purchased for a bargain bin price. Followed by The Walking Dead.
