I Know A Place: Rest Stop and Other Dark Detours

I’m a huge Nat Cassidy fan, so when I heard he had a collection coming out later this year, I couldn’t resist throwing my hat in the ring for an ARC. These stories are deliciously twisted, and more often than not I had no idea where the plot was headed. The collection feels like a perfect sampler of Nat Cassidy’s range and talent.

Here’s my three favorites from the collection:

Meet Cute #1- The Unluckiest Girl: A “cute” little meeting at a bar turns into a surely horrific night.

Nice: A Christmas-obsessed boy is visited by a jaded, exhausted elf who convinces him to be naughty. And he really runs with the title.

Run For Your Life: A real classic twist on the “be careful what you wish for” idea when a Beatles cover band show more decides he doesn’t want to just cover their songs, he wants them to be his own.

Regardless of your specific taste in horror, there’s something here that will get its hooks into you. Whether you’re drawn to psychological dread, shocking twists, or gore this collection offers at least one story that will stay with you.

Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. show less
