A social worker faces his past as dreams bleed into reality with a serial killer.
Rolfe constructs a narrative where the boundary between dream and reality dissolves for a protagonist struggling with professional and personal failures. The antagonist exploits a graveyard landscape, turning it into a site of sadistic play. This convergence creates a scenario where internal guilt manifests as external threat. The story relies on the tension between the social worker’s inability to escape his history and the killer’s ability to manipulate physical space. It is a tale of ruin driven by secrets rather than supernatural spectacle alone.
This book sits within the American horror tradition, drawing on the legacy of writers like Jack Ketchum and Stephen King. Flame Tree Press, launched in 2018, positions it among established voices and award winners in supernatural fiction.
