&;A smart, deep, black magic carnie noir existential bloodbath&; from the acclaimed author of Boon (Gemma Files, Shirley Jackson Award&;winning author).

In the shadow of World War II, the barren, dusty streets of Litchfield, Arkansas, are even quieter than usual, leaving hotel detective George &;Jojo&; Walker with too much time to struggle with his own personal demons.

But everything changes when a traveling picture show comes to town. The film&;s purveyors check into the hotel where Jojo works and set up a special midnight screening at the local theater. The curtain rises on a surreal carnival of dark magic and waking nightmares, starring Jojo and the residents of Litchfield, as madness, murder, and mayhem threaten to engulf them all . . .

&;A stunner of a story . . . Flat-out brilliant . . . Unfolds like petals of an exotic and scandalous black flower&;each one gently opening to give the reader a distressing revelation . . . Powerful ideas, wrapped in a dark mantle of horror.&; &;My Haunted Library

&;If you like pulpy noir with a dose of existentialism mixed with some utterly bizarre horror, this book is for you.&; &;Fangoria

&;Genre mash-ups like this one are difficult to execute, but Kurtz navigates it deftly, with writing so visceral and evocative it feels less like reading a book and more like watching a film in real time.&; &;Literary Hub

&;While it echoes with the shadowy threatening of Bradbury&;s Something Wicked This Way Comes and the religious dread of Hjortsberg&;s Falling Angel, the clearest voice here is Kurtz&;s own cry into the existential abyss.&; &;Bracken MacLeod, author of Mountain Home
