From acclaimed television writer Stephen Lloyd comes a devilishly good debut- a lightning-fast horror/noir mash-up for fans of Jim Butcher and Joe Hill. It' s the 1980s and Sam Gregory, a substance-abusing war veteran turned insurance investigator, arrives at the galactically elite Danforth Putnam boarding school off the coast of New England to find a stolen manuscript of incalculable value. He soon senses that something far stranger than missing books is afoot-and when students begin vanishing from campus, he realizes how serious it is. At the same time, a reporter is keeping an eye on Sam. Harriet, a physically fragile but spiritually indomitable writer for the school paper, is trying to figure out precisely what he' s up to. As events at the school become increasingly terrifying, Sam and Harriet both venture into increasingly dark territory to crack the mystery. In the end, they uncover a truth more horrible than they could have imagined. Put the novels of Raymond Chandler and Bram Stoker in a blender, splash in a couple drops of Stranger Things, and pour yourself a nice tall glass of Friend of the Devil.
"Horror and noir collide in this blazing tale of a badass investigator and a case of otherworldly crime. Stephen Lloyd makes a hell of a debut with Friend of the Devil. "-Chuck Hogan, co-author of The Strain and The Hollow Ones "Friend of the Devil is a whip-sharp, fast-paced tribute to slashers, fiendishly delicious in every way. Clever, funny, and blood-splattered. . . " Alma Katsu, author of The Fervor and The Hunger
Stephen Lloyd is a TV producer and writer, best known as an executive producer of award-winning shows such as "Modern Family" and "How I Met Your Mother. "
