In the barren expanse of Truth or Consequences, where the horizon stretches like an endless canvas of desolation, a spectral awakening unfolds. Honthas emerge from a century-long slumber with an appetite for blood.
Bud, a man marked by the cruel hand of fate, seeks refuge from the haunting echoes of his past, stained with the violent memory of a love lost. His path converges with the gritty saga of a murder, a trigger pulled in haste at the entrance of a dive bar. United by circumstance, a fellowship emerges from the ashes a tribe of indigenous survivors bound by a collective quest for survival. They grapple with the cryptic origins of the honthas, seeking wisdom from their elders.
In the American Southwest, where the arid winds whisper secrets and the land itself bears witness to untold tragedies, Bud and his newfound companions navigate the treacherous terrain of both the supernatural and the human soul. The journey becomes a harrowing dance between bloodlust and resilience, where the threads of fate are woven with the rugged strands of survival, friendship, and the eternal ache of grief.
Review:
The world in which Michaels' "Truth or Consequences" lives is like something out of Pynchon's "Inherent Vice." Its darkness is beautiful and pulls you in like you're part of the madness at Redd's Bar and along the desert highways in New Mexico. Its unique cast of characters, seen through the eyes of Bud, are all broken, but heroic. The story starts quickly with an unfortunate death, and doesn't ever stop for a beat, continuing to take this rag tag group of barflies down a spiraling rabbit hole of mystery and mayhem with one wrong turn after another. At its end, you can't help but want more for the story's hero, Bud, a widow and loner, a leader and deliverer. "Truth or Consequences" isn't ever what it seems, and Michaels' brilliance puts you in a world you don't want to leave and will keep you on edge from start to finish. - Pat Sargent
