Strawberry Man by Eric Shapiro

Release Date – July 2007

Ben Klein used to sell his own brand of strawberries, but he’s been out of that racket for quite some time. He much prefers to travel the globe, giving speeches on farming and winning corporate awards. When he ventures into an unnamed metropolis to claim his latest prize, he finds himself stranded on the top floor of one of the world’s tallest buildings.

An epic storm has smashed across the planet, wiping out every creature that wasn’t thousands of feet off the ground. As of now, there is no ground. Through the windows of the famous Peak Restaurant, Klein and three young servers watch the water grow higher. And the higher it gets, the more they panic… and the more truth Klein shares about his violent past.

Strawberry Man is a surrealistic vision of a drowning skyscraper, a view of bald nature at war with corporate ambition, and a look at a man who finally faces the raging nature within himself.

“[Strawberry Man] is a little masterpiece…though I was stunned and in awe of it the first time, I am here to tell you that it’s EVEN BETTER the second time around.”
- John Skipp (author of THE LONG LAST CALL, THE CLEANUP [with Craig Spector], and THE SCREAM [with Craig Spector].

Concerned with their friend’s erratic behavior and deteriorating mental health, the remaining trio stages an intervention. Will their actions prove too late to stop Mickey’s downward spiral, or will their own personal convictions spawn dangerous consequences?

“Tom Moran has written a tale that’s suspenseful, scary, strangely poignant and disturbingly relevant, all at the same time. The subject matter is uncomfortable, but you will NOT be able to put this one down… The Problem With Mickey is one of the best novellas I’ve read in the last couple years.” - James Newman (Author of MIDNIGHT RAIN, THE WICKED LITTLE BOY BLUE, and DEEPER.)

MAMA’S BOY by Fran Friel

Release Date – August 2006
Deep within the confines of Penn’s Asylum waits a scarred and broken man with a seemingly non-existent past. Found burned and unresponsive twenty years prior, Frank Doe’s dark secrets have remained locked away in mute silence. That is until Rebecca, a beautiful young doctor newly assigned to the wards of the asylum, steps in to unlock and scour Doe’s psyche for answers about his past. Shocking revelations bring about the doctor’s own troubled history, opening a long-closed set of wounds that she herself must face.
A novella of deep, dark and disturbing images, Mama’s Boy is a story you won’t soon forget. Perhaps it will even unleash your own wounds lying just below the surface. Will you withstand the demons inside?

“Fran Friel’s MAMA’S BOY is a gripping, disturbing, and more- than-slightly twisted debut novella. Though you may feel the need to shower with boiling water afterwards, Friel accomplishes the fine art of making you squirm – big time – without being needlessly graphic. A demented winner from a very promising new author.”
- Jeff Strand, author of DISPOSAL, PRESSURE and CASKET FOR SALE (ONLY USED ONCE)

“A fun, old school psych ward confessional full of blood and betrayal where you can’t tell who are the inmates and who are the keepers.”
- Tom Piccirilli, author of THE DEAD LETTERS, HEADSTONE CITY and NOVEMBER MOURNS

“Mama’s Boy is Compelling, suspenseful, and disturbing as hell! Fran Friel has made a fan out of me!”
- Brian Knight, author of KING OF SOULS and HACKS.

Mama’s Boy is book One in Insidious Publications’ Softcover Novella Series; perfect bound, and limited to 100 signed and numbered copies. Each book is entirely hand crafted sporting French parchment endpapers with linen signature sheets and beautiful, full color interior illustrations. Autographed by the author, Fran Friel, James Newman who wrote the foreward, and artists Tom Moran and Zach McCain.
