Reviews
"Tackling everything from border racism to religious extremism and our country's role in fueling the drug trade, it's a page-turner that transcends genre. Yet with its blend of horror, noir, and magical realism, the book is also a dread-inducing read tailor-made for the spooky season ahead."-- Austin Monthly, "The long-awaited new novel from frequent Vol.1 Brooklyn contributor Gabino Iglesias takes the noir genre into some thoroughly unexpected places. Iglesias's novel traces the last job an unlikely gun for hire agrees to do, and the increasingly bizarre and harrowing array of events that it sends him down when things don't go according to plan."-- Vol. 1 Brooklyn, "A brutal journey across America's southern border and back again, through an underworld in which unearthly powers are used for unsavory purposes (there's a scene involving bolt cutters that haunts our dreams). It's a devastating book about cyclical violence, poverty, and love, one that posits that the true test of life in America may ultimately be deciding which devil you sell your soul to."-- Emily Hughes , NY Magazine / Vulture, "Riveting...a barrio noir that invites readers to consider the depths of darkness in this world, its material effects, and the cycles of violence we both willingly and perforce enter into...The mix of religious, superstitious, and supernatural elements add a dimension to the novel that heightens its horror, but also its social commentary... The Devil Takes You Home may not be a cheerful book, but it still allows glimpses of love, moments of connection, and glimmers of beauty to exist. Even if those can't save us, they point toward what, with some effort and luck, just might."-- Ilana Masad , NPR.org, "Some nightmares you wake from just leave you in an even worse nightmare. And then Gabino Iglesias holds his hand out from that darkness, takes you home."-- Stephen Graham Jones, author of THE ONLY GOOD INDIANS, "Iglesias's newest is chock full of vibrant culture and grisly terror as one man undertakes an odyssey to put an end to his suffering - one way or another. Brimming with noir sensibility and delightfully unapologetic, this book weaves a tangled path of terror that reminds readers there's no one straight path to redemption." -- Rue Morgue, "My pick put me through the ringer...It's the story about one man's descent into hell, with violence so relentless I kept grabbing my bookmark to take a break. But I also kept coming back, unable to resist his crisp, propulsive writing...Mario thinks he'll get a new start teaming up with two other men to hijack a drug cartel's cash shipment before it gets to Mexico. Instead, he gets a dark odyssey made even darker, and not necessarily by the beatdowns, shootings, not even that long, terrifying tunnel under the border, but by his own growing realization that he's not as morally bankrupt as he thinks he is."-- Melissa Gray, senior producer, Weekend Edition , NPR/Weekend Edition Sunday, "Tackling everything from border racism to religious extremism and our country's role in fueling the drug trade, it's a page-turner that transcends genre. Yet with its blend of horror, noir, and magical realism, the book is also a dread-inducing read tailor-made for the spooky season ahead."-- Austin Monthly, Chris Hughes, An August Indie Next List Selection One of Harper's Bazaar's Best, Buzziest New Books of 2022 A Book of the Month Selection One of NY Magazine/Vulture's Best Horror Books of 2022 An Amazon Editors' Mystery/Thriller Pick One of The Washington Post's 12 noteworthy books of July and August : One of Crimereads 16 Horror Novels to Look Out For This Year One of The Millions' Most Anticipated Reads of 2022 "Some nightmares you wake from just leave you in an even worse nightmare.

Synopsis
This genre-defying, Shirley Jackson and Bram Stoker award-winning thriller follows a father desperate to salvage what's left of his family--even if it means a descent into violence. Buried in debt due to his young daughter's illness, his marriage at the brink, Mario reluctantly takes a job as a hitman, surprising himself with his proclivity for violence. After tragedy destroys the life he knew, Mario agrees to one final job: hijack a cartel's cash shipment before it reaches Mexico. Along with an old friend and a cartel-insider named Juanca, Mario sets off on the near-suicidal mission, which will leave him with either a cool $200,000 or a bullet in the skull. But the path to reward or ruin is never as straight as it seems. As the three complicated men travel through the endless landscape of Texas, across the border and back, their hidden motivations are laid bare alongside nightmarish encounters that defy explanation. One thing is certain: even if Mario makes it out alive, he won't return the same. The Devil Takes You Hom e is a panoramic odyssey for fans of S.A. Cosby's southern noir, Blacktop Wasteland, by way of the boundary-defying storytelling of Stephen Graham Jones and Silvia Moreno-Garcia.
