Carrion & Co. in Bloomington, MN

From
19-year-old debut author
Evan Kamriguel,
psychological thriller/mystery
Carrion & Co.
paints a portrait of the different ways people seek meaning and reckon with their brokenness, inside and outside of their minds. Occasionally
absurd
, sometimes
darkly humorous
, but always
emotionally raw
, it explores how the past defines them - and their ensuing struggle to move forward.
Troubled by a murky past,
arsonist
"Professor" Carrion arrives in a gloomy, isolated
old town that always rains
to defy the Fates and search for answers - especially about the hourglass marking his hand. His
seemingly jolly coachman
, Winston, however, is much more concerned with the delicate business of
saving his soul
.
Joined by Constable Brauer, an
aging drunkard
who desperately wants to escape his wife, the pair set out to help an old, tricorn-hat-sporting
polygamist
, soon realizing a
nefarious secret society
has its clutches on everything and everyone. As the conspiracy unravels, and the rain ceases, death arrives, forcing them to consider one question:
Is there a cost too high for truth?
