Synopsis

When handsome 17-year-old Matt Poe moves to a rural town in Iowa, he is the new kid in school. An outsider who can't fit in, his only friend is his beautiful and sympathetic teacher, Linda Hayden. The older woman is the first to take an interest in him, helping him adjust to the community and keep his grades up. Matt can't help falling hard for Linda and what begins with a kiss becomes a torrid, secret affair. But his teacher is a lot more than he bargained for and the kid's wildest dream becomes his worst nightmare. The only people who can save Matt are his two classmates, Grace McCormack and Rusty Shaw. But the three of them are in way over their heads against an evil adult trying to make sure they stay after class permanently.

Review

"Titillating and original." --Joel Schumacher, director of THE LOST BOYS and FALLING DOWN

"If you are looking for a sexy thriller that not only pushes all the right erotic buttons but also has you sitting at the end of your seat in suspense, then pick up DON'T STAND SO CLOSE. Highly recommended." --Horrorworld

"Eric Red's first novel is a powerful concoction of one part coming-of-age story, one part erotic thriller, and the sexiest and most twisted villain ever to give a homework assignment." --Ray Garton, author of LIVE GIRLS and FRANKENSTORM
