A model uncovers sinister secrets while posing for an eccentric painter in this Lovecraftian dark fantasy tale.
A contemporary Lovecraftian tale of art, obsession, and elder gods. There were no monsters at first, only “Arthur Dufresne Crispin,” who met me on the front steps of his apartment in the Village: towheaded, tall, and lean, with long spidery fingers that closed mine in a strangler’s handshake. Don't miss Max Gladstone's dark fantasy tale Crispin's Model , a Tor.com Original. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
