Song of the Sandman (A God in the Shed, 2)

“The kind of Gothic/cosmic mashup that would make Arthur Machen and Robert Chambers proud.” ―Shane Keene, Horror DNA & InkHeist After a terrible mass shooting at Cicero’s Circus, the evil presence responsible for the carnage is taken in by a doomsday cult lying in wait for such an opportunity. The village struggles to get back to normal in the aftermath of the shooting. The massacre was the final straw for many inhabitants, triggering a mass exodus. Families left their homes without looking back, not even to find out what could have caused such a tragedy. However, to those who know the truth―that a malevolent god unleashed its wrath upon the village―it’s only a matter of time before events repeat themselves. Venus McKenzie ventures deeper into the pit of secrets left in death’s wake, praying that what she’ll find will help her against the dark forces she couldn’t defeat before.

“Song of the Sandman is the kind of Gothic/cosmic mashup that would make Arthur Machen and Robert Chambers proud. Dubeau infuses his story with heart, humanity, and an obvious delight in scaring the hell out of you. And he’s damn good at it.”

Scott Thomas, Stoker-nominated author of Kill Creek and Violet

"A phantasmagoric landscape where troubled teens, serial killers, sinister carnivals, and ancient beings collide. As haunting as it is brilliant."

Only The Darkest Reads

“An impressive cult thriller. I can't wait to see where this series goes next.”
