Light From the Nether

Molly Dowd Sullivan marks her debut with a thrilling urban fantasy novel that grabs you and won't let go. Dark elements of psychic infection, body horror, trauma, and tragic love play against the backdrop of a compelling murder mystery.

Liam O'Connor is special. When a Fissure opens in someone's mind, he's the one who sews it up again. When a parasite creeps through that Fissure, Liam is the exterminator who purges it. And when Liam loses everything, he's the coward who runs. But when he moves to an old house in coastal New England, hoping for isolation, something from his past follows. Fissures start tearing open; minds are devoured. People die. It's not long before Liam realizes a murderer has come to Shoalport, and he's the only one who can stop them.

Well, him, and the man who keeps haunting his dreams.

For fans of A Song of Achilles, CS Pacat, and Stephen King.
