From the Bram Stoker award-nominated author of The Spite House comes a bone-chilling new novel about a private investigator hired by a mysterious billionaire to discover why he cant die. When private investigator Shyla Sinclair is invited to the looming mansion of mysterious Texan tycoon Saxton Braith, shes more than a little suspicious. The last thing she expects to see that night is Braiths assistant driving an iron rod straight through the back of his skull. Scratch that--the last thing she expects to see is Braiths resurrection afterward. Braith cant die, it turns out, but he has no explanation for his immortality, and very few intact memories of his past. Which is why he wants to pay Shyla millions to investigate him, and bring his long-buried history to light. Shyla cant help but be intrigued, but shes also trapped by the offer. Braith has made it clear that he knows shes the only person he can trust with his secret, because he knows all about hers. Bold, atmospheric, and utterly frightening, Johnny Comptons Dead First is spine-chilling supernatural horror about the pursuit of power and the undying need for reckoning.
