Book description
From Eric LaRocca-Bram Stoker Award-nominated and Splatterpunk Award-winning author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke-comes At Dark, I Become Loathsome, a grim yet gentle, horrifying yet hopeful, intense tale of death, trauma, and love."If you're reading this, you've likely thought that the world would be a better place without you."A single line of text, glowing in the darkness of the internet. Written by Ashley Lutin, who has often thought the same-and worse-in the years since his wife died and his young son disappeared. But the peace of the grave is not for him-it's for those he can help. Ashley has constructed a peculiar ritual for those whose desire to die is at war with their yearning to live a better life.Struggling to overcome his own endless grief, one night Ashley finds connection with Jinx-a potential candidate for Ashley's next ritual-who spins a tale both revolting and fascinating. Thus begins a relationship that traps the two men in an ever-tightening spiral of painful revelations, where long-hidden secrets are dragged, kicking and screaming, into the light.Only through pain can we find healing. Only through death can we find new life.
