Will the Sun Ever Come Out Again?

In these four novellas, Nate Southard blurs the line between crime fiction and cosmic horror to create a unique and frightening style that is all his own. "He Stepped Through" – On an overcast day in Compton, a swath of violence hints at a greater, more ancient evil. Two crooked detectives, a young gangbanger, and a beat cop learn sometimes stepping through a door means it can’t be closed again. "Something Went Wrong" – A brokenhearted loner keeps finding body parts on his doorstep. A mysterious fixer thinks he may not be the right man for the job. Two friends find something strange when a drought reveals old secrets. Just another day in Texas. "Deeper Waters" – Surrounded by flood waters, redneck magician Charlie “Crawdad” Crawford seeks both revenge and redemption in a deserted diner. "Safe House" – A terrorist cell holes up in a remote cabin after a devastating attack on American soil. Something old and terrible waits in the woods, however, and it will destroy them one-by-one…if they don’t destroy each other first.
