Description
"Just when you thought it was safe to yearn for the Good Old Days, here comes TT Madden with a dark kaleidoscope of domestic horrors. Stifling, claustrophobic, and oppressive as all hell, The Familialists exposes nostalgia as a many-mouthed monster... and each chapter's got teeth that won't let go." - Jacob Steven Mohr, author of The Unwelcome
The reappearance of an old flame, held hostage by a man claiming to be her husband.
A seemingly-innocuous invitation laced with a coded signal for help.
An impossible neighborhood with a terrifying secret.
Sorrel follows the calls for help from her ex Maud to Trinity Springs, an uncanny Americana neighborhood that she cannot find any record of actually existing. A place that defies the laws of physics. A place of eerily smiling faces, white-picket fences, and manicured lawns. A place where she, and only she, is warned not to go outside after sundown.
To free Maud from the grip of the town, and to escape a personal and terrifying subjugation, Sorrel must face a monster out of America's past, and the people who are helping that monster claw its way back to the present.
"Days after reading, I still found myself thinking back on The Familialists in the quiet moments of my day. Not only is the horror fresh and inventive, the story is impactful...Painfully beautiful. Madden's writing will get under your skin, through your skull, and ignite something new." Will Rogers, co-host of the Guide to the Unknown podcast
