Sick Nick

by Gregory Alan Burhoe

Four friends in Stony Hills, Rhode Island—Chris, Nicole, John and Katie—are about to remember their worst nightmares after a twisted childhood nemesis returns and tries to force them to face everything they ever wanted to forget.

Once they were brave children. After being lost in the adult world and having learned the art of suppression they must face their deepest, darkest fears if they are to survive a murderous aristocrat with uncanny skills in the supernatural, who seems to know them better than they know themselves.

...and who enjoys lurking in the shadows in the form of a fat black cat with glowing blue eyes and a wide, twisted grin.

About the author

Gregory Alan Burhoe was born in Liverpool, Canada, and now lives in Moncton. As a child, he fell in love with storytelling. By age six, he was busily writing and illustrating comic books. Influenced by Charles Dickens, Edgar Allan Poe, J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, Ursula Le Guin, Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, and the insightful works of Joseph Campbell and Colin Wilson, he began writing short stories and novels by age fourteen. By seventeen, he had stacks of first draft manuscripts inside boxes piled up in his closet. After spending years in theatre, work pursuits, and travel, he self-published his first book, “Sector Storm,” in 2014. A lover of fantasy and science fiction, with an interest in satire and history, he aspires to inspire others the way that his favourite books have inspired him.
