"Poignant and punchy." --The New York Times
Three friends go looking for treasure and find horror in Jeffrey Ford's The Twilight Pariah. All Maggie, Russell, and Henry wanted out of their last college vacation was to get drunk and play archaeologist in an old house in the woods outside of town. When they excavate the mansion's outhouse they find way more than they bargained for: a sealed bottle filled with a red liquid, along with the bizarre skeleton of a horned child Disturbing the skeleton throws each of their lives into a living hell. They feel followed wherever they go, their homes are ransacked by unknown intruders, and people they care about are brutally, horribly dismembered. The three friends awakened something, a creature that will stop at nothing to retrieve its child.Languages:EnglishPublisher:TordotcomISBN-13:9780765397348ISBN-10:076539734XUPC:9780765397348Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Horror, FantasyBook Topic:Dark FantasySize:8.00 x 5.00 x 0.40 inchesWeight:0.4211Product ID:SC1RRF5830
