Book description
A strange, unsettling collection of 3 novellas by one of the masters of the horror genre, Stephen Graham Jones. INTERSTATE LOVE AFFAIR is a frightening glimpse into the mind of a serial killer. William travels the I-10 east, picking up dogs and the occasional girl. None of his companions last long. NO TAKEBACKS: Before you download that next app, think about the creators who put it together... and whether their creation might have gotten away from them.... The programmer friends decide to make a phone app called No Takebacks. The first line of the story gives a flavor of what's to come: "We didn't build the app to kill anybody..." THE COMING OF NIGHT: A serial killer story with a twist. A salesman at a convention chooses a victim at the bar, but that's only the beginning. The supernatural begins to creep in, and the killer himself descends into madness.
