Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Starred Review. As the first anniversary of the kidnapping of two-year-old twins Liam and Shane Boyle approaches in Sidor's bone-chilling third novel, Chicago freelance journalist Jase Deering decides to investigate with his partner and girlfriend, the blind Robyn Matchfrost. Jase has his own demons: his 12-year-old brother, Matthias, was abducted and murdered when they were children. With the help of police detectives, Jase traces the palindrome mirrorrorrim, which the twin's abductor carved into their nanny's living flesh, to cult leader Aubrey Hart Morick, who advocated human sacrifice. Though Morick is long dead, Jase discovers that his son, Graham, lives in the area and isn't as harmless as he first appears. As Jase spends the next 10 years delving deeper into the world of Morick's cult, he realizes that even if he finds the Boyles, it may be too late to save them or himself. Sidor (Bone Factory) is a master of the unsettling, and each twist is more grisly and unexpected than the last. Readers won't be able to resist staying up all night to finish this haunting tale, though they may wish they hadn't. (Apr.)

Review

“Unforgetable, spellbinding, and darkly suspenseful. Sidor must have sold his soul to the devil to write this well.” – Steve Hamilton, author of Night Work, on Skin River

“Sidor is a prince of darkness, steeped in the noir tradition and not giving an inch. That said, he is also bountifully talented.” – Kirkus Reviews on Bone Factory

“Steven Sidor keeps the pacing piano-wire taut and selects his words with a vivisectionist’s diabolical care.” – Stewart O’Nan, author of The Good Wife, on Skin River

“Ideal for those who enjoy queasy, uneasy, macabre reading – this is stomach churning suspense at its best.” – Lansing State Journal on Bone Factory

“With an eye for gritty detail and a predilection for metaphor, Sidor paints a morbid picture of deviance and death….The salty prose and clever narration will keep readers hooked.” – Publishers Weekly on Skin River

“…dark, harrowing, and unpredictable as a run of dangerous river. Sidor plunges you into chilling waters on page one and barely lets you up for air.” – Gregg Hurwitz, author of The Crime Writer, on Skin River
