Synopsis: "A harrowing exploration of the expanding labyrinth of despair and the self." Paul Tremblay.A mindbending and visceral experimental horror about a young man trapped in an infinite Montreal subway station, perfect for readers of Mark Z. Danielewski and Susanna Clarke.Vicken has a plan: throw himself into the Saint Lawrence River in Montreal and end it all for good, believing it to be the only way out for him after a lifetime of depression and pain. But, stepping off the subway, he finds himself in an endless, looping station.Determined to find a way out again, he starts to explore the rooms and corridors ahead of him. But no matter how many claustrophobic hallways or vast cathedral-esque rooms he passes through, the exit is nowhere in sight.The more he explores his strange new prison, the more he becomes convinced that he hasn&’t been trapped there accidentally, and amongst the shadows and concrete, he comes to realise that he almost certainly is not alone.A terrifying psychological nightmare from a powerful new voice in horror.
