Summary
"The stories collected here are by turns confident, brutal, and breathtaking . . . must-read horror" —the New York TimesA beautifully crafted, devastating short fiction collection from the Bram Stoker Awards® finalist and author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke.

Originally published under the title The Strange Thing We Become and Other Dark Tales, this is a much-praised collection of deeply unsettling, painfully dark tales.
Contains mature themes.
