This is a psychological 'horror' story rather than the supernatural type that makes up the majority of Campbell's work. An ordinary but rather irritating man who continually cracks jokes, suffers misfortune and, due to his obsession with numbers, is drawn into a spiral of criminal behaviour as he tries to head off the bad luck that he believes is due to a chain letter that he sent on - basically, if the recipients failed to act, he thinks bad luck rebounds onto him. It does become fairly repetitive and you also need to allow for the dated setting - video rental shops, old style computers - though he deserves credit for having the protagonist's wife as a self taught IT instructor given the usual stereotype of IT personnel. Not his best sadly. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Jack Orchard seems a normal family man - with a mild interest in numerology. He is now deep in trouble and he and his wife seem close to cracking when he receives a chain letter promising good fortune so long as he sends a copy to ten other people. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
