A terrifying and claustrophobic queer dark academia horror set in a demon-infested archive about trauma, grief and the lengths we will go to for love.
Perfect for fans of T. Kingfisher and Tori Bovalino. GUILT. GRIEF. OBSESSION. Michael Stein arrives at the Schechter Institute for Judaic Studies battered and broken, blaming himself for the tragic accident that took his boyfriend's life. He is haunted by his guilt and grief, but is determined to repent by completing his boyfriend's research into demonic entities. But instead of being welcomed by the archivist, Michael is met by Jacob Schechter--the archivist's enigmatic, brooding grandson, who has inherited the Institute after his grandfather's death. As Michael explores the archive, delving into cryptic texts and whispered histories, shadows from the past begin to seep into the present. Tormented by demons both real and imagined, Michael's grief warps into something far darker--an intoxicating, yet increasingly toxic obsession with Jacob, whose own secrets threaten to destroy them both. Now, Michael must confront the terrible truth behind his boyfriend's death--and his obsession with Jacob--before the darkness they awaken in each other claims more than just their love, and consumes them entirely.Die Inhaltsangabe kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
