Will the Sun Ever Come Out Again?

In these four novellas, Nate Southard blurs the line between crime fiction and cosmic horror to create a unique and frightening style that is all his own.

"He Stepped Through" - On an overcast day in Compton, a swath of violence hints at a greater, more ancient evil. Two crooked detectives, a young gangbanger, and a beat cop learn sometimes stepping through a door means it can't be closed again.

"Something Went Wrong" - A brokenhearted loner keeps finding body parts on his doorstep. A mysterious fixer thinks he may not be the right man for the job. Two friends find something strange when a drought reveals old secrets. Just another day in Texas.

"Deeper Waters" - Surrounded by flood waters, redneck magician Charlie "Crawdad" Crawford seeks both revenge and redemption in a deserted diner.

"Safe House" - A terrorist cell holes up in a remote cabin after a devastating attack on American soil. Something old and terrible waits in the woods, however, and it will destroy them one-by-one...if they don't destroy each other first.
