From the publisher:


Something ancient is moving through the cracks of our world.


Eddie and Miriam are on the run from an otherworldly hunger that will not stop until it has consumed their souls. In the twilight streets of New York, their path collides with Harris, a cynical detective forced to confront a supernatural reality his rational mind denies.
They aren't the only ones facing the darkness, though. Alvarez and Matteo, the last of a secret Jesuit order, are prepared to fight what lurks beneath - with gun, knife, and garrote. And a mysterious voodoo doctor has the unenviable task of deciding who lives and who dies.


190 interconnected tales of supernatural mystery and horror that span space and time.


With every turn of the page, the noose draws tighter around the survivors, linking disparate lives and ancient horrors into a single, inescapable spiral. And at the center, the hungry maw awaits.
Each one-page story a hidden clue, masterfully crafted by George Q. Smith.


Don’t just read the stories. Follow the clues.




Author's bio:


George Q. Smith lives with his wife, two kids, and a dog who - so far - has stubbornly resisted learning to read books. He originally set out to write children’s stories, but the daily reality of two teenagers nudged him toward horror. His previous work includes the story and screenplay for a theatrical film released in 2012. The Spiral is his first novel.
