In 2015, Adam Cesare (Clown in a Cornfield) released the ebook Mercy House. Now this Halloweeen season, it will be getting a brand-new revised edition avaible in both print and audiobook! This spiffy new release will hit shelves on October 20, 2026.
The novel takes place inside the titular retirement home. While the facility looks clean and state-of-the-art, it’s harboring a horrible secret, something inside is turning residents into monsters.
“Harriet Laurel notices the odor the moment she steps inside Mercy House, brought to the retirement home against her will by her son and his wife. In the early stages of dementia, Harriet has grown to resent her daughter-in-law for not providing grandchildren. Yet as she crosses the threshold, she notices her mind begins to sharpen. Then her hate begins to grow. . . .” the synopsis reads.
“Arnold Piper, an eighty-five-year-old ex-Marine, has always prided himself on self-reliance. But betrayed by his own body, he’s learning that surviving war-torn Korea was easier than facing the daily indignities of old age. And his worst trials are still to come.
Sarah Campbell, an idealistic nurse, is already stretched thin at the chronically understaffed Mercy House. Now her duties are about to take a terrifying turn. Can she survive the night. . . and her patients?”
