A Hollow Dream of Summer's End (15 page)

About the Author

Born in 1979,
ANDREW VAN WEY
grew up in Palo Alto, California, spent part of his childhood in New England, and currently splits his time between East Asia and the U.S.

When he’s not writing he’s probably hiking, playing video games, or sleeping with the light on. He considers gelato and pizza to be a perfectly acceptable meal, shorts to be business-casual when paired with a scarf, and video games to be better entertainment than most movies.

He is generally a pleasant fellow, unless engaged in said video games.

Forsaken

A Novel of Art, Evil, and Insanity

A cursed painting...

A hidden affair...

And an undying secret, alive, in canvas and oil.

For art professor Dan Rineheart, life's a dream. His childrens’ laughter fills the halls of his home, and his wife's embrace lulls him to sleep.

But this summer's end heralds the arrival of three ill omens: a lost bird, thousands of miles from home; a beautiful student with whom he shares an insidious past...

...and a mysterious painting, a disturbing work of grotesque perfection that awakens a surreal nightmare.

Enter the world of
FORSAKEN
, where evil lives in art.

“…intricate, disturbing, unexpected and scary. ‘Forsaken’ is a deliciously wicked read.”

“...
suspense, mystery, demons from the past, adultery, psychology, horror... all told in a descriptive way that kept me turning page after page.”

“This book really rocks! Beautifully written.”

“I did not want to read this book before I went to bed!”
