From the New York Times bestselling author of The Only Good Indians is a chilling historical horror novel tracing the life of a vampire who haunts the fields of the Blackfeet reservation looking for justice. A diary, written in 1912 by a Lutheran pastor, is discovered within a wall. What it unveils is a slow massacre, a chain of events that go back to 217 Blackfeet dead in the snow. Told in transcribed interviews by a Blackfeet named Good Stab, who shares the narrative of his peculiar life over a series of confessional visits. This is an American Indian revenge story written by one of the new masters of horror, Stephen Graham Jones. "A remarkably well-wrought work of historical horror that will captivate Jones's fans and newcomers alike." -- "Publishers Weekly (starred review)" "A riveting story...transforms, in Jones' deft hands, from the unapologetic horror novel it most certainly is into a critique of the entire idea of the United States." -- "Booklist (starred review)" "Based on gruesome true events, Jones blends history and horror in a haunting story of vengeance and survival." -- "Barnes&Noble.com" "It's as much an autopsy of institutionalized treachery as a demonization of its tragic and terrifying 'villain..'" -- "Kirkus Reviews (starred review)" "Stellar performances are the center of this compelling listening experience. Narrator Marin Ireland fully embodies the beleaguered humanities professor...Owen Teale's performance of a Lutheran pastor exhibits gravitas...Shane Ghostkeeper provides Good Stab with a subtle yet ferocious performance...Complete with creative production touches, the result is a dark, satisfying listen. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award." -- "AudioFile" "While this is a unique vampire story, it is also grief horror, portraying the mourning of a land and a people, inscribing profound sorrow for what was and what can never be again." -- "Library Journal (starred review)" Stephen Graham Jones is the award-winner and New York Times bestselling author of six story collections and twenty-five novels.
