Beskrivning
A pulse-pounding supernatural horror novel where a former heavy metal guitarist fights to reclaim her soul in an unforgettable blend of music, suspense, and dark fantasy from the New York Times best-selling author of The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires. “A gloriously over-the-top scare fest that has hidden depths.Readers will root for Kris all the way to the explosive, poignant finale.”—Publishers WeeklyEvery morning, Kris Pulaski wakes up in hell. In the 1990s she was lead guitarist of Dürt Würk, a heavy-metal band on the brink of breakout success until lead singer Terry Hunt embarked on a solo career and rocketed to stardom, leaving his bandmates to rot in obscurity.Now Kris works as night manager of a Best Western; she’s tired, broke, and unhappy. Then one day everything changes—a shocking act of violence turns her life upside down, and she begins to suspect that Terry sabotaged more than just the band. Kris hits the road, hoping to reunite Dürt Würk and confront the man who ruined her life. Her journey will take her from the Pennsylvania rust belt to a celebrity rehab center to a satanic music festival. Filled with unforgettable characters, razor-sharp humor, and a heartfelt celebration of creativity and heavy metal, We Sold Our Souls is a thrilling horror novel that explores the heart of a conspiracy-crazed, pill-popping, paranoid country that seems to have lost its very soul.
