It Follows meets My Sister, the Serial Killer in The Body, a pulse-pounding supernatural horror story from bestselling author Bethany C. Morrow, where one woman must survive a series of bizarre and escalating attacks on her marriage.
Mavis broke from her parents' congregation years ago, but she still hasn't recovered. Their impossible expectations and soul-shredding critiques have dug deep into her mind, and she's taunted by the knowledge that even when she's done nothing wrong, she'll never be right.
Now Mavis is afraid she's about to lose the only thing she has: her husband, Jerrod. The man she's always known was too good to be true. No one thinks she deserves himβnot even after surviving the serial cheater they wanted her to stick byβand soon they'll all find out they were right.
Mavis is already unraveling when a brush with death shows her what real fear looks like. Soon, she's under constant attack from all directions. As the assaults turn increasingly vicious and bizarre, Mavis realizes that Hell isn't reserved for the afterlife.
And sinner or not, no one is coming to save her.
