Peele’s Get Out meets Ray Bradbury’s Something Wicked This Way Comes.
Henry Lewis needed a temporary escape from his life. His job, home, and family
have become the shackles that bind him in the prison of his mind. He longs to
be free of it. . . for at least a little while. When Henry learns the circus
has arrived in his Bronzeville neighborhood, he sneaks away in the night,
hoping to find a brief escape from his troubles. With a world of distractions
all around him, he finally feels free. But the circus paints a bright facade
over a dark past, and the freer he feels the more bound he becomes. He needs to
break away. But before he can save his future, he’ll have to discover the
sinister truth about his past. The stakes are high, and time is running out.
J. M. Sawyer is an author of adult suspense and horror
novels. He received his B.A., summa cum laude, in Political Science from Seton
Hall University and his J.D. from St. John’s University School of Law. Formerly
a criminal defense attorney, his road to publication was anything but
conventional. It was during trial preparation that he learned his true calling
was that of a storyteller and his true talent was plotting complex,
multi-layered narratives that will keep readers turning pages until the very
end. Those are the stories that shaped his love of books, so those are the
stories he endeavors to tell. A New Jersey native, he now lives in Michigan
with his wife, Nora, and his two sons, Jesse and Alexander.
