Sometimes the cure is worse than the disease..."Part medical horror, part supernatural suspense, MERCY is a hard-hitting fever dream of a novel. I enjoyed the hell out of it!" Tim Waggoner, author of The Way of All Flesh and Eat The NightWilliam Saint is dying of cancer.Stricken with fever, he is rushed to Mercy-notorious as a place to send the sickest of the poor and uninsured to be forgotten-and finds the hospital in even worse condition than his previous visit.The grounds are unkempt, the foundation is cracking, and like the wild mushrooms sprouting from fissures of decay around it, something is growing inside the hospital.Something dark... It's feeding on the sickness and sustaining itself on the staff, changing them. And now it wants Willie."Pain and poetry flow in equal measure through these pages. Dunham's prose strikes deep and hits all the right notes. MERCY is unforgettably vivid." David Dunwoody, author of Hell Walks and The 3 Egos"Dunham has channeled his many brushes with the other side into the exquisitely rendered, lyrical supernatural hospital thriller MERCY. 3.5 out of 4 Skulls." - FANGORIA
