HELLBENDER

AUTHOR: JASON JACK MILLER

PUBLISHER: RAW DOG SCREAMING PRESS 2012

DESCRIPTION: There are some strange things happening at the edge of reality. Let Raw Dog Screaming Press author Jason Jack Miller take you to a place where love is forever even when death isn’t, where magic doesn’t have to be seen to be believed, where a song might be the only thing that saves your soul.

Jason Jack Miller’s MURDER BALLADS AND WHISKEY series is a unique blend of dark fiction, urban fantasy and horror. It’s Appalachian Gothic, Alt.Magical.Realism, Hillbilly Horror. It’s AMERICAN GODS meets JUSTIFIED. TRUE BLOOD with witches. It’s Johnny Cash with a fistful of copperheads singing the devil right back to hell.

Henry Collins is a simple young man with a kind heart who's just trying to find his way in the world. His quiet life is changed forever the day he buries his little sister. This single event forces him to enter a strange world whose very existence he spent his whole life denying--a dark wilderness where the old magic thrives--a place far darker and deadlier than the Appalachia he grew up in. To avenge his sister Henry must slip past the boundaries of logic and reason to a place where the only reality is survival. He won't be able to come home until his life is no longer simple, his heart no longer kind.

This is a tale of star-crossed lovers and civil revenge by uncivil hands, written in blood that is barely thicker than water.

CHARACTERS:

Jake Gyllenhaal as HENRY COLLINS

Henry doesn't believe in the old time magic that his family lives by, but he does believe in old fashioned revenge for his sister's murder.
