The Fall Of Never
By Christine Filipak for Dark Realms
Kelly Rich is a video editor living in New York City. When her younger sister is savagely attacked, Kelly is summoned back to The Spires, the ancestral home of her estranged family. Upon returning home, Kelly suddenly realizes that she has completely blocked out any real memories of her past. She can barely recall her childhood and has only foggy snapshot memories of her parents and little sister. The circumstances that led to Kelly being sent away years ago remain shrouded in shadows as well.
Kelly soon discovers that an unearthly force lies hidden in The Spires, a force that has been biding its time, awaiting her return. It haunts Kelly’s waking dreams and nightmares, but it cunningly stays one step beyond the threshold of reality. Little by little, Kelly’s lost memories resurface, and with them comes the realization of a power that she must learn to control if she is to save her sister’s life.
The Fall of Never is a suspenseful and compellingly original tale that delivers a captivating supernatural mystery with an eerie, dreamlike quality. Ronald Damien Malfi masterfully blends psychological terror and traditional gothic horror into a sinister fairy tale that would make Stephen King and the Brothers Grimm shudder with dark delight. Highly recommended.
