The Hostess Secret: A Novel

Always in the same bed.

Cam—not Cameron or Camden, but Camilo—is waiting at the airport for his flight to Chicago to meet his daddy—my apologies, his boyfriend, Nico, whom he has not seen in a while. Although Nico does not like it when he calls him that, Cam wonders if he has changed.

Once they are together, they arrive at 6932 Melodale Lane, where, rooted under the dim illumination of the porch light, Cam stands before this unsettling figure with a ghastly appearance. He realizes with a chilling certainty that the ashy, frizzy hair figure is Janice, their hostess.

However, some weird things happened during their stay.

But, everything is all good?

Or is it?
