The Kills: Sutler, the Massive, the Kill, and the Hit (140 page)

 

 

Although
The Kills
can be read and enjoyed alone, it is part of a larger project. In a ground-breaking collaboration between author and publisher, Richard House has also created multimedia content that takes you beyond the boundaries of the book and into the characters’ lives outside its pages.

 

All of the multimedia content is available for free on

www.thekills.co.uk

 

This additional content is freestanding and can be experienced before or after reading the book, but Richard House has the following suggestions for where you might like to encounter each piece in the narrative. The locations can be found by following the links listed below. The additional content can also be found by following the links or entering the short URL into your Internet browser’s address bar.
