Dead Heart - by Brandon Ford - A twisted tale of death and love

5 of 5 Stars

There are a lot of free books out there.  Some good and some very, very bad.  This one was great.  I wish I could remember who recommended this one.  It had to come recommended, because I don't go looking for free books any more.  Too much I actually want to read and not enough hours in a week.

Carl is an artist when it comes to bringing the dead to life.  Actually, it's his job to make a corpse look it's best for the family and loved ones when they come for the viewing.  His boss, Xavier would call him an expert restorative artist.  He's even due for a raise, he's that good.

Carl, however has found another way to make a quick buck.  Seems there is a certain element that will pay to be with the dead.

Now, with the death of a Hollywood icon, Carl sees the chance at a huge payday, but when the time comes to collect he gets more than he bargains for.

Dead Heart is a twisted tale of sick desires and everlasting love.  Brandon Ford does a very nice job telling a story of necrophilia without bludgeoning us with all the lurid details and taking us to a place unexpected.

I highly recommend this short story and right now, it's available for free at Amazon.com.
