Kevin Lucia feiert seine Fähigkeit, die menschliche Psyche eindringlich und oft beunruhigend zu erforschen, indem er sich in die dunkleren Winkel unserer Ängste und Begierden vorwagt. Seine Prosa zeichnet sich durch eine scharfe Atmosphäre und meisterhafte Spannungsgestaltung aus, die den Leser in Welten entführt, die sowohl vertraut als auch erschreckend fremd sind. Mit seinen von Kritikern gefeierten Kurzgeschichten und Novellen festigt Lucia seinen Ruf als bedeutende Stimme der zeitgenössischen Horrorgeschichte und bietet Erzählungen, die lange nach der letzten Seite nachhallen.
