Wikipedia article


'The Insider' is a novel by Christopher Evans published in 1981.

Plot summary



'The Insider' is a novel in which aging author Blair is controlled by an alien mind.

Reception



Dave Langford reviewed 'The Insider' for 'White Dwarf' #43, and stated that "More chilling than any number of lurching, blood-spattered vampires, Evan's low-key tensions and domestic concealments make you feel that this lurking mind always play-acting for fear of exposing its real personality to an unsympathetic world could almost be your own. Isn't this play-acting what we all do? The ending is sad but satisfying; 'The Insider' is recommended."
