#1 Horror Bestseller and multiple Bram Stoker finalist Michaelbrent Collings brings you a "chilling collection of eight tales... as scary as they are satisfying" (Publisher's Weekly). A family that wins tablet computers at a deal to good to be believed... A man who is sent across the universe, only to discover the most dangerous world in existence... A hitman who realizes that his greatest contract is going to be himself... A man whose child has been targeted by a cult, and must decide what he is willing to do to save those he loves... Michaelbrent Collings brings you eight tales of people whose lives -- and sometimes deaths -- have fallen into decay. Tales of the ordinary and the extraordinary, the outrageous and the banal.
