He is missing the tips of fingers from an incident with a garbage disposal, and has been abandoned by his father. With the character Stevie, Ahlborn creates a deeply flawed protagonist, both physically and mentally. Stevie is determined to find his friend and get to the bottom of this mystery, even if it means sneaking out his bedroom window and risking some harsh punishment from a cruel stepfather. In the backwoods of rural Oregon, ten-year-old Stevie’s cousin and best friend -Jude-is missing, and the incompetent cops, half suspecting he may be a runaway, can’t do a damn thing to find him. Hot off the heels of her much-acclaimed novel Brother, which was so disturbing and shocking it bordered on transgressive, Ania takes a more innocent and chaste approach with The Devil Crept In. Bestselling author Ania Ahlborn’s new novel The Devil Crept In is a fun horror romp, the kind of creepy, blood-soaked tale of terror you’d expect to hear around a campfire, complete with a monkey-demon-baby-vampire creature.
