The Seven Visitations of Sydney Burgess

“Perfect for those who have found psychological thrillers to be a gateway drug into appreciating the world of horror.” –CrimeReads“Admirers of the works of Tana French, Megan Abbott, and Zoje Stage will devour this book.”–Booklist“Marino offers horrors both existential and visceral. From a stunning opening, the sense of dread just builds and builds.”–M. R. Carey, author of The Girl with All the Gifts“Odd and dark and fascinating … Not quite like anything I’ve ever read before. A strange, compelling, late-night page-turner. It kept me reading way past my bedtime.”–T. Kingfisher, author of The Hollow Places“Equal parts surreal and hyper-real, darkly hypnotic. Marino puts his main character’s throbbing heart on full display and we are swept along on the dark journey into waters both mystical and terrifying. With every new revelation, the dread just mounts and mounts to the mind-shattering conclusion.”–David Wellington, author of The Last Astronaut“Andy Marino’s The Seven Visitations of Sydney Burgess is a gripping portrait of addiction and an innovative take on demonic possession, delivering a shocking ending and powerful themes of how love heals but can also be corrupted.”–Craig DiLouie, author of The Children of Red Peak“Marino does an impressive job writing tender and heartbreaking moments without sacrificing the brutal tone that drives the story. Absolutely devastating.”–Publishers Weekly
