THE HEADLESS BOY COVER REVEAL
he I've been a fan of Kelli Owen's work from the first novel I've read of her's, Deceiver (although I'd argue her original title is more fitting). Her latest novel, The Headless Boy, was released today from Poltergeist Press, and...damn...just look at that cover.
This is a read for me, no matter what. To be honest, I didn't even read the synopsis below because I like going into the works of authors I dig completely blind. And that's certainly going to be the case here.
Man, that cover is gorgeous. I'm looking forward to diving into the words beyond it.
Reeling from the loss of a child, Maggie finds her job at the local daycare unbearable and errands around town impossible. She knows every child, every single parent, and they’re all reminders of what she’s lost. Unable to heal, she sinks further into the grip of grief and depression.
Jake is a good guy, a great husband, and wants only the best for his broken wife. Therapy and medications aren’t helping, and a change of scenery makes perfect sense. A new home. A fresh start. He is nothing but patient, giving Maggie the space and emotional support needed to move on.
But once they’ve settled in, Maggie offers him an alternative. And though Jake doesn’t believe in ghosts, he plays along with the charade in the name of helping his wife. Until he discovers it’s not a game.
They are not alone.As the subtle activity grows violent, Jakes realizes the thing in their house has chosen Maggie as a surrogate mother, and it does not want a father figure. Jake and Maggie’s fresh start has become a battlefield, and he’s no longer sure which side his wife is on.
Does Jake have the strength to save them both?
