Synopsis:
Inside all of us, there is darkness. Inside Clive, it's tangible, and
it's aching to get out.
What Hides Within tells the story of a man held captive by an unknown
evil. Clive Menard is a spineless slacker leading an ordinary
existence. But when Chester enters his life, it becomes far from
ordinary.
A disheveled Clive stands alone in a hospital waiting room. A series
of incidences have led him to undergo unnecessary neurosurgery. A
voice inside Clive's head nags him to kill the doctor.
Weeks prior, a murder investigation and an unrelated kayaking
excursion set the story's interlocking events in motion. When a
remorseful killer, a bomb-happy psychopath and a mysterious widow
spider converge upon Clive, they bring with them destruction and
death. Clive must discover who or what is steering his very existence
before he, too, is consumed by the carnage around him.
With a driven detective following his every step and a vicious killer
hiding within his circle of friends, Clive must walk a narrow and
dangerous path, teetering between salvation and damnation. He must
confront Chester and his own demons. But is he powerless to overcome
them?
What Hides Within is a Finalist for "Best Horror" in eFestival's
Independent eBook Awards and has been named to Best of 2012 by A
Thousand Lives book blog.
