Edge of Sundown

Spice Level: 🌶🌶

When dystopian fiction becomes real, can one man make the right choice?

Edge of Sundown

Val Haverford’s sci-fi and western novels made him a household name. But a decade of creative stagnation and fading health has left him in the literary wilderness.

Until he pens a dystopian conspiracy set in a universe where alien invaders eliminate ‘undesirables’ perceived as drains on society.

But as he digs deeper into violence plaguing his adopted home of Chicago, he discovers unsettling similarities between his work in progress and a life he thought he left behind. Soon he finds his fictional extremists are not only real—they’re intent on making sure his book never sees the light of day.

Val soon realizes his last chance to revive his career and reconcile the past could get him—and the people he loves—killed.

★★★★★
Edge of Sundown takes the reader to some intense places almost in a Heart of Darkness kind of way in its exploration of the cracked and jagged lines between good versus evil.

I tried, and failed, over and over again to predict what was coming, and couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.

★★★★
Edge of Sundown is the rare book that takes all of your expectations and turns them on their hypothetical ear. What is supposed to be a simple who-done-it, does what genre does best—it makes you think.
