A Victorian dandy and his dog might just save the world from the unspeakable denizens of an alternate dimension. In a house by a park, a religious zealot opens the gates of Hell. These twelve tales of psychological suspense and horror mix heart, brains, and balls to create a pulse-pounding literary experience. A finalist for the Lambda Literary Award for Best LGBT Speculative Fiction!.
