Three brand new novellas from Tyler Jones, author of Midas, Heavy Oceans, Almost Ruth, Criterium, and Burn the Plans (one of Esquire's "Best Horror Books of 2022")
In Turn Up the Sun, Hazard, the eccentric drug dealer from Criterium, is horrified to discover he has a doppelganger who appears at the scene of a grisly murder.
In Stridor, a pediatrician is not only haunted by her mistakes, but stalked by them.
In Sidewinder, a young musician receives a custom, otherworldly guitar pedal.
“Tyler Jones’ stories are a manifesto for how horror can move, disturb, amuse, and devastate...written with such heart and humanity that you close the book feeling refreshed, confident that horror still has much to offer.”
—Esquire Magazine on Burn the Plans
"...smart...thrilling...Tyler Jones has written one for the ages...one of my favorite reads in years."
- Josh Malerman, author of Bird Box and Spin a Black Yarn on Midas
"A grisly tale, an ever-so-slow twisting of a knife. A triumphant piece of fiction."
- Philip Fracassi, author of Boys in the Valley on The Dark Side of the Room
"This is small-town Bradbury with a world-weary mean streak: even the magic here seems perfectly happy to break your bones and drag your face across asphalt."
- Jeremy Robert Johnson, author of The Loop on Criterium
Tyler Jones writes with the lyrical complexity and haunting tenderness of masters like Matheson and Straub while remaining entirely new and inventive. A true visionary of contemporary horror fiction."
—Eric LaRocca, author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke on Almost Ruth
"Gripping, visceral, and supremely unpredictable."
- Nat Cassidy, author of Nestlings on Heavy Oceans
Genre: Horror
