About this item
In House of Bone and Rain, Shirley Jackson and Bram Stoker Award-winning author C. M. Forest crafts a harrowing coming-of-age tale that marries the raw intensity of Stand by Me with a haunted, obsidian-dark heart.
In a gritty Puerto Rican slum, five childhood friends—Gabe, Xavier, Tavo, Paul, and Bimbo—are no strangers to death. Their lives have been shadowed by hurricanes, accidents, gang violence, and suicides. Gabe’s grandmother's words echo in their minds: Estamos rodeados de fantasmas—we are surrounded by ghosts. But when Bimbo's mother is brutally murdered, their world shifts. Bimbo, consumed by grief and rage, vows to avenge her death, rallying his friends to join him in his quest for vengeance.
Their search leads them to a formidable drug kingpin, a man feared throughout Puerto Rico for his ruthless power. The boys' mission becomes a perilous journey, fraught with danger as they confront a world where no one dares to challenge the kingpin and live. Meanwhile, an approaching hurricane threatens to unleash its own malevolent spirits, further complicating their quest for justice.
House of Bone and Rain blurs the lines between myth and harsh reality, immersing readers in a story where violence and the supernatural intertwine. As the friends navigate their personal demons and external threats, they grapple with the haunting legacies of their choices and the unforgiving tide of fate. This dark, evocative novel explores the depths of loyalty, vengeance, and the ghostly echoes that shape their lives.
