I was offered a review copy of Christopher Opyr’s novella, Calling Mr Nelson Pugh. Seeing it was a quick read and I do love psychological thriller’s I grabbed it.
MY REVIEW
WOW. Calling Mr nelson Pugh is an intense psychological thriller novella that has an underlying threat in the beginning that turns into an all out assault to the senses as he is taken down a torturous road to hell.
I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of Calling Mr Nelson Pugh by Christopher Opyr.
GOODREADS BLURB
Mr. Nelson Pugh suffers from crippling anxiety, which is only exacerbated when he travels. So when on his latest business trip he receives an unusual series of calls from his wife, Eleanor, his anxiety gets the best of him. At first, giving in to his own self-doubt, he attempts to cast aside his growing fears as another episode of paranoid delusion. As the calls continue, however, Nelson can no longer be sure.
Is he suffering from a panic attack or is his family in terrible danger? And if the danger is real, will anyone believe him when he can barely trust himself?
Hundreds of miles away and with no hope of reaching his family, Mr. Nelson Pugh must uncover the truth before the mystery reveals itself with potentially horrific consequences.

Hmm! I’m not a big fan of novellas and I’m especially dubious about those that fall under the category of psychological thrillers as I all too often find the characters underdeveloped and the book not long enough that any great suspense can be built. That said your ‘an all out assault to the senses as he is taken down a torturous road to hell’ certainly makes me think this is one novella worth keeping in mind.
Another good review. Poor Mr. Pugh!
I feel the same as Felicity above..I usually don’t care for novellas but you make this one sound worth my time!
