Teddy has made a terrible mess. His sister is dead. His beloved Peg has been destroyed. And Mother will be home at any moment. As Teddy races to conceal what happened inside their decaying family home, grief gives way to darker impulses—and an already horrifying crime threatens to expose the secrets the household has kept buried for years. But Teddy is not the only member of the family with a distorted understanding of love, obedience, and punishment. Written by Brian Warner, better known as Marilyn Manson, “All in the Family” is a transgressive descent into domestic depravity, where innocence has curdled into obsession and keeping a family together may prove more terrifying than tearing it apart.

In Perdition Ridge, the fog hides more than the horizon. A young boy lives among ramshackle shelters and hard-drinking shipyard workers, waiting for his father to explain why they cannot go home—and why his mother never came with them. His days belong to the fishing traps along the jetties. His nights are spent keeping quiet and hoping his father’s anger passes him by. Then a vessel emerges from the mist, carrying something no working ship should hold. The men ashore know more than they will say, and the stranger who promised his father a better life seems to have claims that reach far beyond a day’s labor. With little protection and fewer answers, the boy begins to discover that a cage can take many forms.
