After a traumatic accident that almost cost Jordan his life, he's finally starting to feel normal again. Well, maybe not normal. Everything tastes like ash, and when he looks at the people around him, their faces start to melt. At least he's not dead, right? His friends are doing their best to get him back on his feet, maybe find someone to talk to, perhaps even find someone to take his mind off his last failed relationship.

Then he meets Lilith. The two share an instant connection but after a wild and passionate night together, she ghosts him. Jordan searches the city for Lilith, desperate to see her again. But when a woman claiming to be Lilith shows up, wearing a different face but knowing intimate details about Jordan, he worries he's losing his grip on reality. As he grows closer to this mysterious woman, he discovers that happily ever afters sometimes come at a cost. How far will Lilith take him, and how much darkness will he embrace to find love?

I am ride or die for Clay McLeod Chapman-the guy is a master of the form, a magister of terror, a puppeteer of dark vibes. I'll read whatever he writes until I'm in the ground, and even then I hope people keep tossing his new releases into the casket.
--Chuck Wendig, author of THE STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS

Chapman spins an unnerving tale of demon possession into a profound love story. Devil Inside is a feverish blend of savory writing, wicked humor, psychological complexity, and body horror.
