Houses of the Unholy

&&&★ "Brubaker and Phillips continue to prove themselves as two of the very best creators to ever generate works of sequential storytelling in this haunting, knottily plotted hybrid of thriller and character study." —Library Journal (Starred Review)

In this new tale, an FBI agent from the cult crime beat and a woman with a past linked to the Satanic Panic are drawn into a terrifying hunt for an insane killer hiding in the shadows of the underworld.

This pulse-pounding story asks: can you ever escape your past, or are all your bad decisions just more ghosts to haunt you, wherever you go?
