Detective Peale had dealt with Todd and Lori Harlin over the years, as their drinking often turned to violence toward one another. One night, Todd confesses to Peale that he has killed his wife, then weaves a tale about a mysterious substance he found in a warehouse and its horrific effects when exposed to flesh. Stephen Wise brings you this dark tale, a cross between a noirish detective thriller and body horror that will keep you turning the page.
