Inflictions

ebook

Welcome to the world of John McIlveen. Enter, please, but be warned... here you will find tales that blur the lines of horror, vengeance, humor, sorrow, and humanity. You will encounter broken people with dark secrets and darker desires. Meet Justice, whose art exposes your soul. Ride along as a man's search for his daughter reveals that sometimes the best way to heal old scars is to make new ones. Go on vacation with the Seth's, who are forced to play a game that is every parent's nightmare. Play a Sunday game of softball with the most unusual team imaginable. You will experience the foulest parts of humanity, as well as the funniest and sweetest. Some of these stories will make you laugh, some will anger or shock you, but all of them will affect you. You will love, hate, and sympathize with the characters, possibly at the same time.

The collection includes an introduction by New York Times bestselling author Christopher Golden and an afterword by James A. Moore.
