Synopsis

In Accomplice, friends don't shake hands As an episode of Accomplice history comes to a close, the Circus of the Heart's Shell transforms the town square into a venue for hellish clowning. Sweeney's forces close in upon Barny from several directions. But is Dietrich right that humanity is more routinely evil than any mythical fright? Will Fang be re-united with his zombie family? What does doomed Eddie Gallo find outside Accomplice? Will Gregor survive a boxing match with a slob demon? Violaine's prophecy comes to pass. The troops do something useful. Two living Steinway Spiders attack. Rudloe confronts the Conglomerate with his cowardice.

Media Reviews
Accomplice is the Wonderland of a sick Alice a bizarre, self-contained city threaded by creep channels, where the surreal and the nightmarish are everyday a realm of casual, accepted insanity. Accomplice: the literary equivalent of digging a hole, doing a headstand in it, and claiming you re wearing the world as a hat
