ON THE LIPS OF CHILDREN

2013 Best Small Press Horror Novel Finalist 
-What Horror Looks Like


"Top Horror Read of 2013" 
-A Readers Review Blog

"Best Kindle Book Award 2014: Semi-Finalist"
-The Kindle Book Review

"One of the scariest novels I've read this year."
 -Alicia Banks, The Horror News Network

"A brutal, intense ride of claustrophobic horror and gritty, page-turning suspense. This is dark fiction at its visceral, chilling best." 
-Jan Kozlowski, author of Die, You Bastard! Die  

"A dark, terrifying page-turner. It's Stephen King's Misery on bath salts. In a cave. It scared the crap out of me." 
-Michele Miller, author of The 13th Step: Zombie Recovery


"A raw, adrenaline filled ride about what lengths a person will go to to save the ones they love. It will keep you glued to the pages until the very end."  
-The Kindle Book Review  

"An ordinary running trail becomes the most terrifying place on the planet for Mark Matthews' troubled, likeable, marathon-running, tattooed, hipster protagonists and their young daughter. But for the horror-show clan living under that trail--who subsist on flesh and bath salts in a nightmare orgy of blood and crazy--the hipsters are a rare treat indeed. As the family v. family showdown transpires underground and off the beaten path, the vulnerability of running on a trail--alone but for the watchers in the woods--makes the setting unique and well crafted. Written with verve, surprising compassion, and bite, On the Lips of Children is a seriously demented must read."
-SACHA Z. SCOBLIC, author of Unwasted: My Lush Sobriety

"A dark, bloody book, at its bleak heart about the love a mother has for her children and the lengths she will go to for them to survive. You'll never look at jogging, the homeless, or even vampires the same way again. And, no, this book isn't about and doesn't feature vampires at all. What's featured here is infinitely worse."
 -John F.D. Taff, author of Little Deaths and The Bell Witch
