From the New York Times best-selling author of The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires comes a hard-rocking, spine-tingling horror novel.

We Sold Our Souls is a gripping tale about a washed-up guitarist of a '90s heavy metal band who embarks on an epic road trip across America, delving deep into the web of a sinister conspiracy.

Every morning, Kris Pulaski wakes up in hell. In the 1990s, she was the lead guitarist of D rt W rk, a heavy-metal band on the brink of breakout success, until lead singer Terry Hunt embarked on a solo career and rocketed to stardom, leaving his bandmates to rot in obscurity.

Now Kris works as the night manager of a Best Western; she's tired, broke, and unhappy. Then one day, everything changesβ€”a shocking act of violence turns her life upside down, and she begins to suspect that Terry sabotaged more than just the band.

Kris hits the road, hoping to reunite D rt W rk and confront the man who ruined her life. Her journey takes her from the Pennsylvania rust belt to a celebrity rehab centre, and finally, to a satanic music festival. A furious power ballad about never giving up, We Sold Our Souls is an epic journey into the heart of a conspiracy-crazed, pill-popping, paranoid country that seems to have lost its very soul.
