The Purgatory Bar and Grill
The Purgatory Bar and Grill #1
Cam Solas
An odd desert town. Sentient road signs. Hidden gods. And a radio station that is half prophet, half backseat driver. This is the world Alex finds herself in.
For fans of Good Omens and Under the Whispering Door who want their afterlife to have teeth, their deities delightfully queer, and their found family in the last place they’d look, this moody, atmospheric mythic fantasy delivers dark humor, ancient mysteries, and a story about finding your voice when everything else is being erased.
What happens when the fog locks you in, and you can't find your way home?
Alex has been asking herself that question for eighteen months. She tends bar at a dusty roadhouse, serves coffee to regulars who feel like echoes, and tries to ignore the supernatural current hummed by the radio, while she waits...for the fog to lift, and for a woman she doesn't know.
When a mysterious woman in purple arrives, she brings more than just whispers of the past. She brings a spark that challenges Alex’s isolation, pulling her into a fierce, breathless connection with a woman she cannot afford to lose. But as the fog closes in around them, it brings a threat that wears familiar faces and speaks in familiar voices. It erases everything it touches, leaving only empty shells behind.
To save the woman, her dog, and her eccentric found family—the silent cook, the gun-toting motel owner, the goth cab driver, the flamboyant KJ, and his soulful partner—as well as herself, Alex will have to stop avoiding the past. Because in this town, the gods are watching, and your voice is the only weapon you have left to fight back.
