Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Jeff Somers, author of popular noir thriller The Electric Church, kicks the door in on the darkly whimsical and macabrely weird with Five Funerals: Choose Your Own Perilous Path--a book that looks at the tongue-in-cheek nihilism of Edward Gorey's The Gashlycrumb Tinies and asks, "What if these kids had a bit more life in them?" What emerges is a book you never knew you wanted to read but won't want to put down. The graduating class of Bishop Carlbus Prep has a secret. The Outing Party is a tradition at Bishop Carlbus, a semi-illicit party hosted by a senior student after the annual Outing, a weekend field trip taken by the graduating class every year. In 1995, Amy Keaton is determined to host a legendary Outing Party, but everything goes wrong. Her classmates are rude. Someone seems to be sabotaging her plans. And, as the night goes on, resentment and rage start driving everyone to extremes. The party spins out of control: by the next morning, Amy Keaton is dead, and twenty-five kids have a soul-crushing secret. In 2015, six Bishop Carlbus Prep alumni--Victor, Kate, Leo, Titus, Ida, and Winnie--gather for the funeral of their old high school classmate Zillah. They soon realize that they are now the sole surviving members of the Class of 1995--everyone else who attended Amy Keaton's Outing Party is dead. And many of those deaths are bizarre and shocking. Sucked dry by leeches. Consumed by mice. Swept out to sea. The survivors begin piecing together the events of the last two decades, and wonder: Is someone hunting them? Are they next? And, maybe, do they deserve to be next.…
