The Devil's Nitpicking

By Michael Allen

Sometimes the hardest person to escape is yourself.

Country has spent his life moving forward. New cities. New relationships. New stories. Whenever life closes in, he finds another road and keeps going.

But some things follow you.

THE COMPLETE TRILOGY
A River in the Ocean - Book One
The Deeper Dark - Book Two
The Devil's Nitpicking - Book Three

The Devil's Nitpicking follows Country, Brianna, Shelly, and the people surrounding them as their lives change in ways none of them expected. Love grows up. Families change. Old promises become harder to keep.

And eventually, Country has to confront something he has spent years avoiding.

Himself.

The final novel in the On the Outside Looking In trilogy, The Devil's Nitpicking combines fiction with an original musical experience.

Every chapter has its own song.

Written as part of the story, the music extends the experience beyond the page. Readers can scan the QR codes included in the book to hear each song as they move through Country's story.

Some stories end when you turn the final page.

This one keeps playing.

Complete the trilogy with Book Three.
