The Bone Parade

Ashley Stassler has been widely praised for his bronze sculptures of families, depicted in moments of excruciating physical and emotional pain. But the art world has no clue as to how he creates such authentic, gruesome, tortured representations. Stassler has found a grisly method of combining his sadism and his art. He assigns each family a number, and now he's up to number nine. But family number nine's teenage daughter begins to twist Stassler's attempts at mind control into a perverse game of her own. Told from the viewpoints of both the hunter and the hunted, this terrifying, fast-paced novel will keep readers guessing until the very last page who will survive this war of physical and emotional endurance.
