Dammed

by L.G. Rivera

“One part travelogue, one part madness.” DAMMED A hard-drinking, womanizing travel writer lands the sweetest honey of an assignment ever and sets off for Amsterdam. There’s just one his travel companion. Darwin J. Jones, though everyone calls him Win, takes being a bad influence seriously. Before long, the two set aside research, and drinks, drugs and women consume their time. Soon, even this is not enough. From a spreading shadow of madness, the truth starts to that Win may be harboring a much darker side. L.G. Rivera’s extraordinary debut novel, Dammed, is a story about one man’s descent into insanity and depravity and, possibly, redemption — tautly written, one part ode to a beautiful city, one part grand tour into a depraved mind.

A bit biased, as I wrote it :)

Dammed is a story about one man’s descent into insanity and depravity and, possibly, redemption — tautly written, one part ode to a beautiful city, one part grand tour into a depraved mind.

A hard-drinking, womanizing travel writer lands the sweetest honey of an assignment ever and sets off for Amsterdam. There’s just one problem: his travel companion. Darwin J. Jones, though everyone calls him Win, takes being a bad influence seriously. Before long, the two set aside research, and drinks, drugs and women consume their time. Soon, even this is not enough. From a spreading shadow of madness, the truth starts to emerge: that Win may be harboring a much darker side.
