Description

Deep in the Arizona desert live a girl and her dad, burying secrets—and bodies.

Mesa Kingston's first memory of burying a corpse was at eight years old. Back then it had been the carcass of a large lizard her dad found that they buried in the backyard of their isolated cottage. At age fourteen, the body of a young lady accompanied the reptile's remains, and ever since, an accumulation of female bodies began to grow. Now, the only way Mesa can stop the haunting screams of the dead is by drowning them out with flames. Or is there more to the blaze than even she can perceive?

NOTE: A novella of 10,000 words, 70 pages, and an estimated read time of 1 hour and 5 mins.
