The year is 1983, and "Satanic panic" is raging in America like a wildfire; religious zealots see the devil in everything from household products to rock 'n roll. Three awkward and isolated Southern California teens spend their idle time with seances and harmless roleplay- but the fun stops when they realize that they're not alone in their fantasy worlds, and not in a good way. THE RHETORIC OF FAILURE, an 80s supernatural thriller, is a terrifying novella from author Sean McDevitt. (This paperback edition includes the short story, DEFACE THE MONA LISA.)
