Depth Charge

Synopsis

Art world darling Julian Le Sang paints with passion, with abandon, and with his own blood. Inside these blood paintings, Julian sees more than art … he sees the future. Jones, author of White Line Fever From Tyler Jones, author of Burn the Plans (one of Esquire's Best Horror Books of 2022), Heavy Oceans, and Midas, comes a new novel in which the future is written in blood. In fifth grade, Julian is bullied and alienated until Marcy befriends him and learns the strange boy's dark secret: he sees visions of death in his own blood. Visions that turn out to be eerily accurate. When Julian becomes a famous artist, he inadvertently pulls Marcy and her son into a world of secret government programs, murder, blood soaked canvas, and a terrifying version of the future that's barreling toward them with all the force of a nuclear weapon. A horror story about fate and how every choice shapes what will become our world.
