A relentless, devil-deal horror thriller about immortal souls, from the award-winning author of the acclaimed novel Poe.
When marketing executive Fiona Dunn walks into a bar feeling defeated, she chalks a charming stranger’ s claim of being the Devil up to a drunken pickup line. But a few drinks in, he offers her a wish in exchange for her immortal soul— and a mysterious “ favor” to be called in later— Fiona takes the bait.
Bad idea. Now Fiona’ s part of a hidden circle of “ dead souls” whose reckless bargains with the devil have bound them to unspeakable acts. Each carries a business-card contract, and each lives in dread of that blank “ Favor” finally being called in in.
As bodies start piling up, and favors are called in one by one, Fiona realizes that the true horror is not the deal— it’ s the terrifying, inevitable price. Racing the Devil’ s deadline, she must outwit the master of Hell himself… or lose more than her soul.
Dark, gripping and twist-filled, Dead Souls blends supernatural suspense, occult horror and Faustian dread in a high-stakes thriller you won’ t be able to put down.
