Time Like Twisted Vine

by M. Chris Benner

Now that he’s found the person responsible for the violent death of his parents, a young man returns to his mundane life. Playing poker with mass murderers. Drinks with a porn star in search of greatness. And avoiding the depressed brother and four-year-old child that have recently invaded his house. But when complications from the death of a Boston drug manufacturer threaten his life and those he cares for, he must return to that which he's best at.


Blood-soaked and thrilling, these are OUTLANDISH NEW WAYS TO PUNISH STRANGERS.

About the author

Matthew Christopher Benner is an author from the east coast somewhere. I'm thinking Maine but that's probably because I'm confusing him with a good writer. Pretty sure he lives near West Chester but google maps showed a hell of a lot of West Chesters so that piece of information proved not-helpful at all. If I had to guess, I'd say... West Chester, Illinois... but I'm basing that on nothing. Not one single thing. In fact, pretty sure Illinois was one of the few states without a West Chester. Anyway, he has children, several of 'em. I think they're both girls that hopefully take after their mothers. And he's got trades, seems to gather them like shot glasses: massage therapist because he's creepy and he touches people; bartender because he's creepy, and without drinks no one would let him touch them; an avionics technician 'cause why the hell not, apparently; and he's a thief, 'cause I know one time he stole the woman of a guy who writes author's bios for a living. These are just things, just listing things about him, just a list--bunch of stuff, all equally important. Really, all you need to know about the kid is that he doesn't succeed. Ever. And I guess he's got a good sense of humor. And he's balding.
