Slippin' into darkness

Lovers and losers, athletes, insomniacs, and working stiffs, these people are all bound by the past, a dream, and a beautiful woman slowly putrefying in the earth. Now, those who adored her, those who wronged her, those who abused her, and those who envied her have just begun the longest day and night of their lives. Winner of the Bram Stoker Award.
