The Reverend's Powder



THEN

Reverend Billy Simms has healed tens of thousands during his time as a faith healer, and his reputation as “the real thing” draws thousands of the sick, the weak, and the wounded. Against his better judgment, Matthew agrees to accompany his cancer-stricken sister to the faith revivalist’s assembly. A skeptic at heart with a jaundiced eye, he recognizes the reverend as a fraud, but can’t help but feel hope as his sister’s condition seems to improve. Two days later, though, she's dead.

NOW

As Reverend Simms stands naked, unconscious, and strapped to an appliance hand truck, Matthew has a decision to make. He has reached a fork; one road stretching toward forgiveness and the other descending into bloody revenge. 

From the author of DEMON comes a novelette of love, loss, and revenge.


What Others Have Said...

 “The Reverend's Powder explodes out of the gate from the very first sentence and is a one-sitting thrill ride through love, life, faith, and the bittersweet taste of revenge.” -Gord Rollo, author of THE JIGSAW MAN 

"With the white-hot intensity of a holy-rolling blowtorch, Williams delivers a blistering gutter-Gospel on the deception that preys on blind faith, and the long, bloody road to truth and forgiveness. When there's no more room in Hell, let the worst sinners burn in the mind of Erik Williams." -Cody Goodfellow, author of RADIANT DAWN and PERFECT UNION 

"The Reverend's Powder is a gripping little tale. I’d say 'It grabs you from the first sentence and never lets you go!' but that’s kind of trite, so instead I’ll point out that...it comes highly recommended." -Jeff Strand, author of DEMONIC

"If less is more, then Erik Williams's The Reverend's Powder is definitely more. With stripped-down prose that foregoes flowery wordplay in favor of in-your-face brutality that cuts to the heart of the protagonist's plight, Williams has created the perfect horror tale for a quick read in bed, lights off, blankets up, sleeping partner oblivious to the violence your ingesting." -Kevin Wallis, author of BENEATH THE SURFACE OF THINGS
