New Release: Closet Space
Palmetto Publishing has recently launched a gripping horror novel titled
Closet Space, penned by
George Dyer Jr. This supernatural thriller intricately ties a family's dark history across generations, tracing back from the
1920s in Sicily to the
1960s suburbs of America.
A Tale of two Timelines
The narrative unfolds in two distinct timelines, starting in 1926 with a young Sicilian woman named
Sofia D'Alessandro. Fate has forced her to flee her homeland, burdened with a chilling secret that haunts her every step. As she embarks on her journey to America, she encounters an unfathomable entity with void-like eyes and ominous whispers — a being that not only pursues her but attaches itself to her bloodline, ominously murmuring, "She's in the corner."
Fast forward several decades; the story shifts to
Gregory Brodeur, a boy growing up in a house saturated with inexplicable dark history. Although sheltered from the grim realities of his home, intuition often leads him to sense an unseen presence lurking behind the walls and closets.
As the tale transitions from the
1960s to the 1970s, Gregory's innocent curiosity transforms into a desperate quest for understanding. He soon realizes that his home is steeped in malevolence that predates his family's residence and shows no signs of relinquishing its grip. As he delves deeper, the line between reality and horror blurs, leaving Gregory grappling with the realization that his fate may not unfold as he hopes. His plight becomes an underdog story, showcasing the struggle against an ancient evil he cannot easily escape.
