Dear Connie

Kali has been a good little demon, killing whoever Connie tells her to: criminals, strangers, lowlifes.

But when Kali falls for Connie’s boyfriend, she stops taking orders and starts taking over.

DEAR CONNIE is a wickedly sharp examination of that deadly line between a possessive relationship... and possession.

“The twisty battle of wills between Connie and Kali will keep readers turning pages until the novel’s gritty end. It’s good, gruesome fun. (Nov.)”

Publisher’s Weekly

“I devoured Robin Becker's Dear Connie, a fast-paced horror story that masterfully mashes together body horror, possession, family saga, and criminal-enterprise thriller…At times riotously, darkly funny, at times terrifying and taut, Dear Connie has something for every reader who is a fan of the fearsome and the fantastic.”

— Joe Baumann, author of A Thing Is Only Known When It’s Gone

“Absolutely stunning, Dear Connie will wrap phantom fingers around your throat and refuse to let go. As you gasp for air, you'll use your last breath to ask for more.”

— A.C. Hessenauer, author of Going to the Six

“Robin Becker’s Dear Connie is intimate, personal, and lucid—much like any nightmare that startles us awake. This is a story about how we can embody, succumb to, and even become the monstrous. Like the entity that Connie carries, Becker’s propulsive prose settles in and holds tight.”

— Carson Faust, author of If the Dead Belong Here

“Moody and dark, with a mix of humor and tragedy all wrapped up in a supernatural battle for bodily autonomy, Dear Connie is as mercurial, tragic, and darkly humorous as its unearthly and vengeful narrator.”

— S.G. Browne, author of Breathers and Lost Creatures
