Brothers

1 min read

Michael Dougherty witnessed the unthinkable when he was just six years old; his brother’s body, cold and lifeless, surrounded by vermin. The awful sight haunts him into adulthood where he finds that a horror he thought long dead is still very much alive and intent upon finishing what was started all those years before. Brothers is a story unfolding in alternate chapters; a journal detailing a boy’s descent into terrifying darkness and the sacrifices of those who put their lives on the line to protect him; and an unfolding present-day account of a man determined to do whatever he must to protect those he loves.

“I saw the possum before I saw the hand. It was an ugly thing, all bristly-haired and naked tailed. It looked at me. It turned its bent-whiskered snout and looked at me. I saw something in its eyes that shouldn’t have been there. And I couldn’t take my eyes off that thing nibbling on that finger. My brother’s finger.”
