ALICIA IS IN THE BASEMENT
by Santiago Eximeno
translated by Alicia L. Alonso
Out June 16th
"Staggeringly brutal and as painful as poking at an exposed nerve."
Emma E. Murray, Crushing Snails
“A harrowing journey that becomes increasingly nightmarish with every page.”
Carson Winter, Soft Targets, Portraits of Decay
One summer afternoon, Santi and Maria's daughter disappears without a trace from a public park. A fruitless investigation passes, the agony only serving to tear Santi’s life and family further apart.
Months go by, and Santi finally stumbles upon a clue: it is hardly a name, barely a whisper, but it is enough to reveal a haunting legacy and unleash an entirely new kind of horror upon the despairing young father:
“He Who Does Not Speak With Children.”
Front cover and interior art by Jenna Cha.
"Tenebrous went for broke here and this is by far their best. A painstaking, demented journey...The final pages will leave you staring into the abyss, where hope and horror blur together in the most devastating way."
