Description

In the sun-drenched California town of Boleta Bay, the glittering promise of Funland conceals a darker world of violence, fear, and predation. As vulnerable drifters become targets and the people who hunt them draw the attention of law enforcement, several lives are pulled into a dangerous collision. Told through interwoven storylines—including a young man seeking acceptance and police officers determined to expose the killers—the novel builds a tense portrait of a community where menace lurks beneath the carnival atmosphere. Blending gritty suspense, graphic horror, and Richard Laymon’s character-driven intensity, it explores the cruelty hidden behind appearances and the desperate struggle to survive.
