The Pariahs

Two siblings are torn from their beds at night by The Government and transported into an isolated stronghold hidden in deepest Siberia.

Friendships will be formed and loyalties tested as the siblings struggle to locate one another, but tragedy lurks within the compound and blood relation does not always mean family.

Destinies are interwoven and fates collide in The Pariahs, the explosive novella from Erik Hofstatter, author of the acclaimed Moribund Tales.
