Sarah, Harriet, and Boris are outcasts searching for solace in their own private fantasy worlds. Mourning the recent death of her best friend, Marshall, Sarah tries to find comfort in the countless horror movies she loves. Harriet, Marshall's mother, grieves by immersing herself in the serenity of her farm. Then there is Boris. A sixteen-year-old orphan with dreams of writing the ultimate zombie novel, he spends his nights sneaking away from a youth home and his days dreaming of Rex, a beautiful but savage classmate. It is this fascination that sets in motion a violent chain of events that ultimately tests the boundaries of the three misfits' obsessions and leads the novel to its brutal and startling conclusion.

Just ordered my copy of this. The reviews were mixed, but I love Scott Heim's debut novel, so I figure, if it's written in the same style, I'll like this one.

It's apparently a very dark story. I've read that it's more of a psychological thriller, but that it can certainly be considered horror literature.
