He Always Comes Back
"He Always Comes Back is a gleefully subversive love letter to slashers that quickly becomes something even smarter, stranger, and more unsettling. Engel's debut is an incisive exploration of survivorhood, family, and the stories we build around violence, delivered with wit, heart, and blood to spare."

Christa Carmen, author of How to Fake a Haunting and The Daughters of Block Island
