New book description:

Finalist in the 2024 American Legacy Book Awards. Nominated for the 2024 Eric Hoffer Book Awards.

Author and reviewer Michael Brookes said:
"The book starts well and has a 'Books of Blood' vibe which really works well. It's in these tales that the author's writing ability shines. He demonstrates a lovely turn of phrase and some of the writing is almost poetic in its beauty."

A horrific childhood event. Two broken boys struggle to grow up. One to achieves great and covert things, things that nearly kill him. The other continues his struggle through adulthood. Finally they come back together to help one another, one more than the other.

And then things take a staggering turn into the dark and unbelievable. Into a massive and macabre reality that questions everyone's reality. A reality that will enshround the entire world.

British book Reviewer Lynn Worton said:
"JZ Murdock has written a horror story that had me completely transfixed! I'm intrigued as to what he is working on next! Although horror is not one my favorite genres, I recommend this book to those who do love it."

WILDSound Writing Festival First Chapter review said:
"The story itself is very strong, lulling the reader into a false sense of security as two young boys hunt for treasure, before ultimately morphing into a violent and sometimes disturbing tale of horror. This is done with such swiftness that it takes the reader completely by surprise, which only enhances the effect."
