AUDREY
Audrey had the perfect life. Great husband, beautiful daughter, lots of money. Except her husbandisn’t the man she thought he was. Her dead husband’s burner phone was bad. The Polaroids were worse. But the secrets she uncovers next set her entire world on fire.
BURNER
Two women’s lives intersect because of one man’s actions. The transformation is pristine,and beautiful, and filled with pain. Sometimes the scars are on the inside.
It was a good run while it lasted, but Eddie’s days as an Elvis impersonator are coming to a close.
Middle-aged and overweight, even his yearly gigs at county fairs start to dry up.
But Eddie’s priorities change when he fathers a very special kind of baby... sort of.
Struggling with the responsibility and fear of every new father, Eddie is forced to take action to provide for his child.
Even if those actions are illegal... even if he risks his life in the process.
A father’s love knows no bounds... even for a child like this.
An unlikely bond between Eddie and Squirt (a combination of something akin to a larva developing into a somewhat alien-human being with personality. A hungry little squiggler with an unusual, grotesque appetite but also an endearing demeanor.)
There are moments that will make you want to squirm, laugh out loud, and tug at your heart. – Karla Kay (What a wonderful surprise, thank you so much!!)
Only a writer of Tobert Ford’s caliber could pull this off and make it work so well. Even had a tear or two in my eyes by the end. Great book! — SJGomzi
This has got to be the most imaginative, disgusting, horrifying, LOL funny book I've read in ages. BUY IT!
