About this ebook
A Los Angeles Times–bestselling author "combines the divine and the profane in this erotically charged urban fantasy" ( Publishers Weekly).
Imagine Leaving Las Vegas meets City of Angels and American Gods, and you can imagine the power of Severed Wings.
Brandon Jones, a handsome, hopeful young actor, stands on the verge of fame and fortune—when a car accident shatters his life, bringing his career to a screeching halt. Isolating himself, he cuts off his friends and family, turns to booze for companionship, and withdraws to a small apartment on Sunset Boulevard. Now, the only people he interacts with are a drag queen and a student working her way through college as an escort .Brandon has nothing to live for . . . until a startlingly beautiful young couple moves in across the hall. Spying through the peephole in his door, he grows increasingly obsessed with his new neighbors—and the parade of damaged strangers who visit them at all hours. Then something seemingly impossible happens that convinces him that this mysterious couple can help restore all he lost.
"Altman delivers a thrilling roller-coaster ride, plunging us headlong into dark territories fraught with unexpected pivots and twists." —Stephen Susco, screenwriter of The Grudge
"A tour de force of the Weird. Eat of the fruit and take a truly mesmerizing trip through a glass darkly. I did, and I can't wait to do it again." —Nancy Holder, New York Times–bestselling co-author of The Wicked Saga
"[An] ethereal story about the damage of the past and the hope for a better personal future." — Booklist
