Description by Author:
Enigmatic
Zeke Olsen has everything he ever wanted. A well-paid job, a beautiful wife,
close friends, and a baby on the way. Fumbling his way through a traumatic
childhood, he’d carved out the existence of his dreams. His life is perfect
until a business trip to New York brings about a catastrophic turn of events.
Zeke
returns home and finds his life spiralling out of control, battling his memory,
addiction, and pain. He struggles to grasp what happened, who he is, and what
he is capable of. His dream slowly fades into a nightmare and unravels
chaotically around him.
A
boundary-crossing dark, psychological thriller that will keep you guessing as
you ask yourself, how well do you know really know anyone?
About
the Author:
J.S.
Morton is an award-winning fiction writer with a deep love for dark comedy.
Most of his stories revolve around real-life issues and human psychology.
As
a reader, he loves a gritty dystopia as much as dark, humorous read and cites
'The Handmaid's Tale' '1984' and 'You' among some of his favourites.
Outside
of writing, John is a passionate fan of live music (predominantly punk rock),
motorsports, reading, cinema, and snow.
He
is also a staunch believer in kindness and that it is never too late in life to
start again.
