Midas

Tyler Jones

Former preacher Jeremiah Pevensie has lost his faith after the death of his young son. When he discovers a dead body in the woods near his house and a map depicting a location that doesn't exist, Jeremiah and his wife begin a journey to uncover the secret of a power that can transform anything to pure gold. A journey that puts them on a collision course with a violent cult leader. From the peak of a secret mountain where time stands still, to a stone fortress that never stops growing, Midas is a brutal and gripping novel of grief and greed, terror and sacrifice...and the consequences of obsession.

Praise for this book

"Midas is a heart-wrenching cautionary tale about greed, love, loss, and so many of the flawed parts of ourselves that leave gaping holes where perfection should be. However, as Jones points out-in gruesome, diabolic detail-it's those missing pieces that make us human, and fallible, and-in some cases-murderous. This is a story I won't soon forget; there is imagery in this book I'll take with me to the grave." - Philip Fracassi, author of Boys in the Valley

"Brick by brick, the foundation is built, and the mesmerizing story takes flight while encasing the reader in a beautiful dread." - Cemetery Dance

"A monster of a book that is forged in gold, ensuring this story, the message of this book, will not tarnish over time, but will grow priceless with age and will become a rare antiquity on the shelves of horror literature." - Ross Jeffrey
