Synopsis
Joe Hill, son of Stephen King, shows he's inherited some of his father's ghoulish golden touch in his debut novel, HEART-SHAPED BOX. Judas Coyne, a middle-aged Goth rocker, lives in seclusion, tinkering with cars and adding to his collection of the macabre. When he buys a haunted suit over the Internet, he gets more than he bargained for: not only does the suit really have a ghost, but the ghost has a bone to pick with Jude. The ghost's step-daughter, "Florida," was one of Jude's many groupie girlfriends (Jude names all his girlfriends after the state he picked them up in), and the ghost thinks Jude is responsible for the girl's suicide. HEART-SHAPED BOX is filled with grisly set-pieces and plenty of chills, but, like his dad, Hill knows how to get inside his characters' slightly deranged minds, which is where true horror lies.

Industry Reviews
"[A] wild, mesmerizing, perversely witty tale of horror."
(02/08/2007)

"[Joe Hill] gives his characters believably complex emotional lives that help to anchor the supernatural in psychological reality....His subtle and skillful treatment of horrors that could easily have exploded over the top and out of control helps make this a truly memorable debut." (starred review)
