Product Description:
The American Dream... After authoring a bestselling novel that earns him a fortune, small town English teacher John Smith finds himself living the American dream. With his new wealth, he purchases a home in an exclusive neighborhood and befriends his elitist neighbors. John is initially fascinated by this materialistic culture in which the cost of a man’s clothing, car, or possessions determines his worth. The American Nightmare... John soon discovers that his perfect little neighborhood has a horrible secret- his home’s previous owner murdered his wife before disappearing. John is intrigued by the story until he begins finding evidence that someone has been entering his home at night. Has the old owner returned? When friends begin disappearing and the bodies pile up, only then does he begin to understand the horror that waits…Something evil is happening on Shale Street…and money is at the root of it…

- Gripping and sick!
This one really creeps up on you. Tom Moran delivers thoroughly entertaining, genre-bending blend of humor, mystery, and--oh yeah--plenty of horror. Following the exploits of the comically inept, but lovable, John Smith, the novel deissorients and shocks its readers as it descends from comfortably humorous to grotesquely horrific. Be warned: this has one of the most graphic climaxes out there. With the exception of some poor editing by the publisher, this is an excellent debut.

I found Mr. Moran's book to be interesting and very well wriiten. His writing style keeps the reader involved in the story. I had a hard time putting the book down. I am looking forward to Mr. Moran's next novel with anticipatication.

- Acquired Taste$ by Tom Moran
This is a knockout of a first book and quite appropriately titled. You are pulled into the story from page one and you won't be released until the last page - I read it in one afternoon! There's a canine in this story named Unique and all I can say is You Go Girl! If this first book by Tom Moran is any indication of the level of his storytelling and creativity, I've got just one question - hey Tom, when's your next book coming out? Read this book - you're going to love it.

Rating:

- Frighteningly Intriguing
Acquired Taste$ is an exceptional thrill-ride of suspense and horror; an incredible debut. The author does an excellent job in capturing the reader's attention from the start. The story is strong and intriguing, which only adds to its already disturbing believability. An excellent read.
