A legendary Hollywood house comes complete with uninvited guests in this thriller from theaward-winning comic book writer and co-creator of Nexus.   Stunned by the sudden deaths of his wife and mother, comic artist Kendall Coffin moves to LA for film work, using his inheritance to buy the bizarro futuristic Hollywood home of a famous director who was notorious for his wild parties.   Legendary filmmaker Darryl Wyrick would spin in his grave if he knew the types of movies his studio now makes. He may yet. Wyrick was cryogenically frozen and waits for technology to revive him.   Kendall’s work for Wyrick Studios draws him into a netherworld of twisted sexual fantasies . . . and the house itself seems to come alive. Radios turn themselves on. Screams in the night.   And what is the significance of the theater with its proscenium of ancient temple stones?   Kendall meets Ronnie, the girl of his dreams, who works for Wyrick World, the amusement park, playing Illeana the Illusionist. Ronnie knows a few tricks of her own.   As a serial killer stalks the young and vulnerable, Ronnie convinces Kendall to hold a séance, and Kendall’s Hollywood dream house turns into a nightmare as deaths pile up and a monstrous specter stalks the land.  “Mike Baron is Quentin Tarantino on paper.” —Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times–bestselling author

    During the hot, dry summer of 1988, in a forgotten neighborhood known as the riverside, seventeen-year-old Shinogaki Toma is entangled in a desperate struggle against what he believes to be his fate to become his sadistic father. Consumed by a fear that he will harm his girlfriend, Toma's downward spiral into depression and instability becomes increasingly intense. Toma's mother left his father long ago and now lives nearby as a fishmonger. Using the hook that replaced the hand she lost during wartime bombings, she guts the eels Toma catches in the sewage-filled river for his father to eat. Things come to a head when Kotoko, his father's live in girlfriend, becomes pregnant and makes the decision to leave the riverside for a better life.
    Translated from Japanese by Kalau Almony, Tanaka Shinya's Akutagawa Prize-winning masterpiece, Cannibals, sold over 200,000 copies in Japan and was adapted into a movie by Cannes Film Festival-winner Shinji Aoyama.
