Sobre este título
From the Bram Stoker award-nominated author of The Spite House comes a bone-chilling new novel about a private investigator hired by a mysterious billionaire to discover why he can’t die.
When private investigator Shyla Sinclair is invited to the looming mansion of eccentric billionaire Saxton Braith, she’s more than a little suspicious. The last thing she expects to see that night is Braith’s assistant driving an iron rod straight through the back of his skull. Scratch that—the last thing she expects to see is Braith’s resurrection afterward.
Braith can’t die, it turns out, but he has no explanation for his immortality, and very few intact memories of his past. Which is why he wants to pay Shyla millions to investigate him, and bring his long-buried history to light.
Shyla can’t help but be intrigued, but she’s also trapped by the offer. Braith has made it clear that he knows she’s the only person he can trust with his secret, because he knows all about hers.
Bold, atmospheric, and utterly frightening, Johnny Compton’s Dead First is spine-chilling supernatural horror about the pursuit of power and the undying need for reckoning.

"In Dead First, Johnny Compton deftly mixes horror, Texas history, and the detective story. His Shyla Sinclair is my favorite horror detective since Clive Barker's Harry D'Amour. A gory, rollicking ride." —Paul Tremblay, New York Times bestselling author of Horror Movie
“Dead First is a propulsive and eerie tale that questions the true price of revenge. Gripping to the final word, this is my favorite kind of supernatural thriller.” —Erin E. Adams, author of Jackal
"If Easy Rawlins investigated the uncanny, it would read very much like Dead First, a fast-moving, violent, vivid piece of hard-boiled supernatural fiction. Get your rest beforehand, you’ll be up reading long past midnight." —John Hornor Jacobs, author of The Night That Finds Us All
