In for a Dime

The post-apocalyptic love child of Stephen King and Cormac McCarthy

Ten years after the calamitous events set in motion by Dylan Cleary in his attempt to bring George Cleary s last novel to life, Deacon Riis has settled back into the rather sedate life of a small-town reporter. That is, until he s invited to a New Year s Eve Party by Dylan s sister Crystal, who s now a successful writer/producer behind a wildly popular horror movie franchise and for her next big budget slasher flick she s chosen to adapt one of her grandfather s apocalyptic thrillers.

On the drive up to his sister s retreat in northern Ontario, Deacon receives a text that reads, It has begun again. D. True to his word, Dylan is even then orchestrating an apparently random and increasingly savage series of attacks culled from his grandfather s last fiction and Deacon s only hope of avoiding a similar climax as the one that saw much of Mesaquakee reduced to ash will be to go all-in like Dylan, even if it means sacrificing everything he holds dear.
