Get your FREAK on!

Today's the day! Happy book birthday, FREAK!



The reviews are rolling in . . .


"Taut and fraught with surprise twists, Hillier’s thriller is addictive."

"Hillier adopts the style of the great fifties noir authors . . . if your tastes run to Cornell Woolrich or Jim Thompson, Hillier is what you’ve been waiting for."

"Freak is difficult to put down, and enjoyable on some primal level . . . "
~ National Post

"Freak is a 5 star thriller and I recommend it . . . when is the next one coming out, Hillier?"
~ Suspense magazine

"Readers beware: what flows through these pages is not always easy to stomach, but I dare you to take your eyes off the page. The chilling descriptions are a testament to Hillier's talent as a thriller writer."
~ Chapters Indigo Fiction Blog

"Freak is an exhilarating serial killer thriller . . . The storyline is fast-paced from the moment Jerry sees the message on the hooker's torso and never slows down, with a shocking final twist . . . "
~ Gumshoe Review magazine

 "[Hillier's] experience, and dedication to the genre, is probably what makes her so good at hitting all the right suspense beats. But it's more than just that. An innate writing talent also exists, doubling the page-turning pleasure."
~ Horror.com

"This book freaked me out – in a good way. In a word, “frightening”. Jennifer Hillier creates a truly scary killer in Abby Maddox, the female version of Hannibal Lecter – smart, cunning and wickedly evil. I was engrossed on page one, couldn’t put the book down and breathless at the ending. Be prepared for late nights reading. Then sleep with the lights on – if you can. This one blew me away."
~ Robert Dugoni, New York Times bestselling author



Somebody pinch me. I still can't believe this is my life.
