"...it may be said that only the bad live twice, as indeed I have. Yes, the Lord reserves that particular fate for those whom he truly hates."
Atlanta, 1987. FBI profiler and feminist icon Frances Lazarus is dispatched to Cordelia Academy, a preppy suburban high school, after a wave of suicides among teenage girls. Her investigation of the "Cordelia Heart-Killer" leads her to Johann Salvadorus, a self-proclaimed "carnal terrorist" and the school's resident outcast. In the process, Frances is forced to confront her own sexual depravity, sending her and Johann on a journey towards mutual annihilation.
Blending erotica, police procedural, science fiction, and alternate history, Heart Killer is a piercing look at modern sexual relationships, sadomasochism, and desire. Andy Nowicki's novel lifts up the floorboards of human sexuality to examine the rot underneath, shining a light on that unseen monster which consumes us all: lust.
Originally published by ER Books in 2012, Terror House Press is proud to bring this affecting work back into print.
