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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eEverything That's Underneath\u003c\/i\u003e, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Kristi DeMeester's wonderfully disturbing \u003ci\u003eEverything That's Underneath\u003c\/i\u003e 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.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Paul Tremblay, author of \u003ci\u003eA Head Full of Ghosts\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eDisappearance at Devil's Rock\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTABLE OF CONTENTS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEverything That's Underneath\u003cbr\u003eThe Wicked Shall Come Upon Him\u003cbr\u003eTo Sleep Long, To Sleep Deep\u003cbr\u003eThe Fleshtival\u003cbr\u003eThe Beautiful Nature of Venom\u003cbr\u003eLike Feather, Like Bone Worship\u003cbr\u003eOnly What She Bleeds (short story original to collection)\u003cbr\u003eThe Tying of Tongues\u003cbr\u003eThe Marking\u003cbr\u003eThe Long Road\u003cbr\u003eThe Lightning Bird (short story original to collection)\u003cbr\u003eThe Dream Eater\u003cbr\u003eDaughters of Hecate\u003cbr\u003eBirthright (novelette original to collection)\u003cbr\u003eAll That Is Refracted, Broken\u003cbr\u003eDecember Skin\u003cbr\u003eSplit Tongues\u003cbr\u003eTo Sleep in the Dust of the Earth\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 29, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42712463573055,"sku":"9781937009571","price":20.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/7595b3dbb6c867e81fbf6f2c84b6b883.webp?v=1765061837","url":"https:\/\/dhl-adrianne.myshopify.com\/products\/everything-thats-underneath-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
