<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b><i>Everything That's Underneath</i>, Kristi DeMeester's debut powerful horror collection, is full of weird, unsettling tales that recall the styles of such accomplished storytellers as Laird Barron and Tom Piccirilli.</b></p><p>Crawl across the earth and dig in the dirt. Feel it. Tearing at your nails, gritty between your teeth, filling your nostrils. Consume it until it has consumed you. For there you will find the voices that have called from the shadows, the ones that promise to cherish you only to rip your body to shreds.</p><p>In <i>Everything That's Underneath</i>, Kristi DeMeester explores the dark places most people avoid. A hole in an abandoned lot, an illness twisting your loved one into someone you don't recognize, lust that pushes you further and further until no one can hear your cry for help. In these 18 stories the characters cannot escape the evil that is haunting them. They must make a choice: accept it and become part of what terrifies them the most or allow it to consume them and live in fear forever.</p><p>"Kristi DeMeester's wonderfully disturbing <i>Everything That's Underneath</i> features a cast of characters who are as emotionally raw and authentic as they are haunted. DeMeester's mothers and daughters, struggling at the edges of a society/economy as cold and uncaring as the universe, succumb in the face of horrors made even more terrifying by their nagging sense of familiarity. A dark, intelligent, relentless collection."<br>- Paul Tremblay, author of <i>A Head Full of Ghosts</i> and <i>Disappearance at Devil's Rock</i></p><p><b>TABLE OF CONTENTS</b><br>Everything That's Underneath<br>The Wicked Shall Come Upon Him<br>To Sleep Long, To Sleep Deep<br>The Fleshtival<br>The Beautiful Nature of Venom<br>Like Feather, Like Bone Worship<br>Only What She Bleeds (short story original to collection)<br>The Tying of Tongues<br>The Marking<br>The Long Road<br>The Lightning Bird (short story original to collection)<br>The Dream Eater<br>Daughters of Hecate<br>Birthright (novelette original to collection)<br>All That Is Refracted, Broken<br>December Skin<br>Split Tongues<br>To Sleep in the Dust of the Earth<br></p>
