623: “Sweet & Sticky Sarah” by Sebastian Bendix

STORY

Money and privilege often allow one to operate with impunity, but for one well off Boston elite, things are about to get interesting.

Reginald Early, Jr. is the heir apparent to taking over his father's company - a company that was also responsible for the Great Molasses Flood of 1919. But Reginald's arrogance and cruelty might interfere with those plans if he's not careful.


About the Author:

Sebastian Bendix is a Los Angeles based writer and musician, as well as host of a popular midnight horror film series, Friday Night Frights at the Cinefamily. He attended school at Emerson College for writing and has had fiction and non-fiction pieces published in both in print (Mean Magazine, Sanitarium Magazine and Xchyler Publishing) and online (CHUD.com, Encounters Magazine and Grinning Skull Press).

He has written several screenplays in the genres of fantasy, horror and sci fi, one of which, The Black Cradle, is in development as an independent feature. The Patchwork Girl is his first full-length novel. His second novel, The Stronghold, is nearing completion and will be out to publishers in 2016.
