In this gothic horror adventure, a father hunts for vengeance in Depression-era America.

"[Reads] like a collaboration between Stephen King and John Steinbeck. . . . Bennett makes dark fantasy feel like gritty realism, achieving a rare laconic eloquence that will captivate horror readers hungry for new voices." — Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Set against the desolate backdrop of the Great Depression comes a literary debut novel that will reignite the horror genre.

It is the time of the Great Depression.

Thousands have left their homes looking for a better life, a new life. But Marcus Connelly is not one of them. He searches for one thing, and one thing only. Revenge.

In this extraordinary debut, Robert Jackson Bennett tells the story of an America haunted by murder and desperation. A world in which one man must face a dark truth and answer the question-how much is he willing to sacrifice for his satisfaction?
