A Tomb For The Broken

By Jerry W. Barksdale and Broken Brain Books

A bleak literary horror novel told through a chorus of fragmented narratives centered around the disintegration of Shawn Lee James.

Shawn's childhood unfolds beneath the shadow of his father's paranoid schizophrenia and the cruel ghost stories of his sadistic grandfather.

As the line between memory and myth blur, Shawn is drawn to two ghostly girls in the woods, who seem less like hallucinations and more like remnants of a living curse. These delusions, born from his grandfather's stories give rise to a haunted mythology.

What remains is the chilling possibility that trauma is not only inherited but contagious, and that our stories can conjure gods.
