Description

This is one of only 15 signed leather bound deluxe editions in slipcase. This is #1 of 15!!!

Book is in fine condition in a fine slipcase.

Publisher: Delirium Books

"Attraction can really fuck you up," so says Josh.

Josh is into Bronwyn, Griff is into Tammy, Ziggy's into weed, and Dave Olshaker wants to get his girl back from Griff. But that's not all they have to worry about. It's Spring Break, and Bronwyn needs to get to L.A. for reasons that piss her off, Griff and Tammy want to go to the beach and party, Ziggy wants to score, and Josh just wants a reason to get out on the road.

When they end up with a flat tire, stuck out in an Arizona hellhole, they find out about the real attraction.

The signs all over the desert highway: "Come See the Mystery!" "You're Near the Mystery!" "The Mystery of the Universe is Two Miles Away at the Brake Down Palace Gas and Sundries!"

It's a new kind of attraction for them.

There's this legend, only maybe it's not even true, and it's about how the Aztecs in ancient times used to sacrifice human beings. They had this priest called the Flesh-Scraper whose job was to scrape the skin off the bones of the sacrifice.

Now, because Charlie Goodrow, who runs the Brake Down Palace Gas and Sundries, tells this story to anyone who stops for a fill-up, he's sold a lot of tickets to the back of his shop, where the Mystery of the Universe, the Mummified Remains of the Ancient Flesh-Scraper, is there for all to see.

Behind curtains, in a glass case, this small, dessicated corpse with long fingernails. Above it, tacked on the wall: "Please Do Not Touch Glass. We at the Brake Down Palace have nicknamed this special ancient mummy, Scratch, and he has been good luck for us all these years. We must warn any who view it that there is a legend that once Scratch gets fresh human skin under its fingernails, he'll come back from oblivion to reap the human harvest. Do Not Touch. Do Not Feed."

"Some freak put this together," Ziggy says.

"That's nothing but some little kid mummified and they stuck fake longer fingernails on him," so says Bronwyn.

"Let's feed it," Griff says.

And then, the nightmare begins.

Attraction can really fuck you up.
