A man hunts for answers in Savannah only to find a plague tied to evil itself.
Jason Waters leaves behind a brutal attack to seek clarity, but Savannah offers no peace. Instead, he encounters a plague that infects both body and mind. Circelli writes a tale where the cure is as dangerous as the disease. The narrative focuses on the isolation of the protagonist as his reality fractures. Evil is not an abstract concept but a waiting presence in the city streets. The story examines how past violence can invite future corruption. Jason’s journey is less about exploration and more about survival against an internal and external threat. The text does not shy away from the grim consequences of his quest for truth.
Published by Permuted Press in 2016, this work sits within contemporary horror fiction. It engages with gothic traditions through its setting in Savannah and themes of inherited evil. The narrative reflects modern anxieties about mental health and urban decay.

Circelli delivers a harrowing exploration of isolation and sanity within an urban gothic framework. The narrative effectively weaponizes the setting of Savannah, turning the city streets into a waiting presence for evil. By focusing on the psychological toll of a plague that infects both body and mind, the text maintains a tone of persistent dread without offering easy resolutions. This approach suits readers who enjoy supernatural fiction where threats are tangible and inescapable. The story grounds its cosmic horror in the specific, grim journey of Jason Waters, ensuring the horror feels personal and immediate rather than abstract.
