Five familiar lives take one step beyond safety, and discover the horror waiting in homes, jobs, families, entertainment, and the mind of the author himself.
Horror doesn't always wait in abandoned castles or distant woods. Sometimes it lives across the street, clocks in for work, comes on over the radio, or sits beside the people you love.
Across five stories, Mark Tullius follows an overworked father trying to protect his son, an injured construction worker losing his grip on reality, a teenage girl watching an MMA fight turn deadly, an aging DJ chasing a sick child's last wish, and an author facing revelations hidden inside his own mind. Ordinary settings, real stakes, and every turn a little more unsettling than the last.
Perfect for fans of Stephen King, Dean Koontz, and dark, twisted horror.
Concise enough for a single evening. Several different ways to lose your footing.
