Cliffhaven--Magnificent new resort near Big Sur. Surrounded by redwoods. Guarded by Oceanside cliffs. Protected from prying eyes. By reservation only.
Cliffhaven--Founded by a man with very special interests, catering to a very special clientele.
Margaret and Henry Brown, vacationing New Yorkers innocently driving down the sea-washed coast of California, are just the right sort of people.
Cliffhaven--It has a spectacular entrance, a three-star restaurant, lavish accommodations--and no exit!
"This novel should do for California vacation retreats what jaws did for swimming in the Atlantic."--
Los Angeles Times Book Review
"A thrilling nightmare...A Dante's
Inferno...more than fulfills the remark "I read it all in one nail-biting session."--Eli Wallach
"Not only a thriller...a parable and a warning to all who say 'It can't happen here.'"--
