DietVale 2021 Andrene N Low

"Sharp and confronting... Funny and horrific... Vivid and well written... Difficult to put down... A dark comedy, with moments of sheer brilliance, a great, disturbing read..."




They say desperate people make stupid choices, and Marilyn Channing is no exception. Determined to lose weight and move on from a messy divorce, she knows she needs help.




Enter The Vale. A health retreat as mysterious as it is remote; the exclusive spa promises beauty treatments, weight loss, and more. It all sounds so lovely, so supportive, and above all else, so easy.




Marilyn should have read the fine print.




But more terrifying than a surfeit of legalese and lack of chocolate, is the sinister force on the other side of the razor wire fences; one with dark cravings of its own.




Set in beautiful New Zealand, DietVale is a dark tale about being careful what you wish and is the perfect horror for those who possess a dark sense of humour. While it starts off innocuously enough, the descent into hell is steep, and definitely not for the squeamish.
