"Tires on asphalt sounded like a laugh, mocking her pain, and the bus headed down the lonesome highway to the next show."

Danny and Lisa have always been metalheads, chasing those band concerts, and living the dream. A brother and sister that have always been close, living through the many trials of life. Circumstances out of their control. Adulthood separates them but Danny wants more than anything to rekindle what they once had and start chasing those bands again. 

Following the newest sensation "Suck-U-Bus", Danny wants to be a chosen one. To be able to get a backstage pass and enter the bus with the "Mothers" and find out if all the rumors are true. Rumors of supertnatural occurrences, demon sex, and the mysteries that lie within. 

When Danny gets chosen everything changes and Lisa must figure out what is happening to her brother. She is warned that Danny is in danger and when he goes missing, she follows the band only to discover that things are dark and sinister and lives are hanging in the balance. Danger and mysterious incidents ensue as the band plays on!

Curses and witches, demons, occult practices, metal music, erotic sexual experiences, head trips, family dynamics, sleep paralysis, and mystery and mayhem abound in this trippy novel!

S.C. Mendes and Nikki Noir have created one hell of a novel. The creativity in the writing, the characters, and the mystery of it all including the big surprise at the end made this whole book an exciting read!

I recommend grabbing a copy, this one is tons of fun!
