You can thank me later." -- Stephen King Praise for Handling the Undead "A unique and humanistic take on the undead that has a place alongside thoughtful horror novels like World War Z." --Kirkus Reviews (starred) "The first fresh take on the zombie since [Dawn of the Dead]." --Chud.com "Shivers the spine and hooks the heart." --Hellnotes.com "Lindqvist is giving us new kinds of monsters." -- PopMatters.com "Sophisticated horror that takes the genre to new and exciting levels." --Suspense Magazine "A unique standout." --Fright.com "Will entice longtime zombie fans eager for a subversive examination of some of the horror genre's most recognizable monsters." -- Publishers Weekly Praise for Let the Right One In "John Ajvide Lindqvist has become an overnight cult figure." --The Age (Australia) "It is easy to compare Lindqvist to Clive Barker or Neil Gaiman.

But he never know how lost he'd be without her until the night she died. Now she's gone and he's alone. But when he goes to identify her body, she opens her eye... Across the city, grieving families find themselves able to see their loved ones one last time. But are these creatures really them? How long can this last? And what deadly price will they have to pay for the chance to see their spouses and children just one more time?
