"Molasses" by Antonio Michael Downing
Yet more good news and just in time for Christmas. We are about to publish our latest book and the second this winter, "Molasses" by Mike Downing".
From the jacket blurb:
“My real name is Amanda Vrazda and I suppose I owe you a story.” Thus begins an extraordinary narrative. In passage after passage of virtuosic prose, from erotic fantasy to Bible thumping to John Donne, from urban Ontario to hillbilly Tennessee to French Quarter New Orleans, the metaphysical and psychological pressure on the narrator, and on the reader, mounts seamlessly towards an unforgettable and inevitable conclusion, the true identity of the shape-shifting Molasses.

"Dahlia Boyz" by Andrew Hunt
Hot off the press, Dahlia Boyz by Andrew Hunt
Colin and Dwight are on a mission to Los Angeles to find Uncle Skip, who
is obsessed by the unsolved 1947 Black Dahlia murder. “She wasn’t some
self-loathing skank who turned tricks for drugs and money,” Skip
admonishes them, “She was Elizabet...h Short. Born twenty-nine July in
nineteen and twenty-four in Hyde Park, Massachusetts, and murdered—very,
very savagely—on, or around, the fifteenth of January, nineteen hundred
and forty-seven . . . I want you to show her the respect she deserves.”
A five-pound-burrito-challenge, a near-death curbing and one titty-bar
later, a kind of truth emerges. The Dahlia Boyz learn something about
respect and dignity.
