From the Bram Stoker Award-finalist and Splatterpunk Award-winner of Things Have Gotten Worse
Since We Last Spoke a grim yet gentle horrifying yet hopeful tale of grief 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 that and worse in the years since his wife died and his young son
disappeared. But the peace of the grave is not for Ashley?it?s for those he can help. Ashley
Lutin 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 never-ending grief one night Ashley
connects with Jinx who spins a tale both revolting and fascinating. This begins a relationship
that traps the men in a 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 life.
