Summary
A Mask of Flies by Matthew Lyons is a pulse-pounding crime horror epic about a criminal on the run, the deadly family secrets she unearths along the way, and the sinister monster from her past that has gotten a taste for her blood—and won’t sleep until she’s dead.
In the grisly aftermath of a botched bank heist, career criminal Anne Heller has no choice but to return to her family’s cabin–a secluded shack in Colorado’s San Luis Valley, and the site of her mother’s untimely death.
Along for the ride are Jessup, Anne’s badly wounded partner, and Dutch, the police officer she’s taken hostage. As they wait for help, Anne discovers strange relics from her mother’s past and begins to unfold the mystery of her childhood at the cabin.
Then Jessup goes missing, only to turn up dead. Anne and Dutch bury her friend, but that night, he comes back and knocks at the cabin door.
Not a dream, not a hallucination, but not exactly Jessup, either. Something else. Something wearing her friend’s face. Something hungry...
Critic reviews
“A Mask of Flies blows through the intersection at Horror Street and Crime Avenue and doesn’t let off the accelerator as it takes you on a white-knuckled ride to places you do not expect.”—Chuck Wendig, New York Times bestselling author of Black River Orchard
“A Mask of Flies is a riveting story of shocking violence and the terrible mysteries that families leave behind like scars in your skin. It’s desperation, loneliness, and the knock on the door by things that are better off dead.”—Richard Kadrey, New York Times bestselling author
“A delicious mix of crime and horror. Somehow beneath the blood, the nastiness, and the deep, uncanny terror of this novel, Lyons has spun a story of friendship, love, and kindness that will touch your racing heart.”—Wendy N. Wagner, author of The Deer Kings
