Publisher's summary

At Broth House our soups are made from only the finest fresh ingredients, sourced locally through donations. Our charitable restaurant believes that even the homeless and downtrodden deserve a good meal. A gourmet meal. The meats are sourced locally too. Made from only the best stock. Everyone deserves a warm meal in their belly.

Bon appetit!

Brad and Jeffery are having the night of their lives when tragedy strikes like a slaughtering hammer to a cow's skull. After a fatal meeting with the Butter Boys, they will never be the same.

Investigative reporter Veronica Hensley works on facts and instinct. After being taken off of her story following the strange abductions in the San Diego town of Hillcrest, she goes rogue, and what she finds is a bloody mess no one could have unraveled.

Mayor Muller will do anything to get his numbers up, especially in a reelection year. He'll kiss a baby, shake some hands, even agree to appear at a state chili cook off with that Fontaine guy who runs the Broth House soup kitchen. Ol' greasy Muller will do whatever it takes to win.

Will the missing be found, and what will be left of them?

Here at Broth House, we thank you for your contribution. Everything you give helps feed the needy and the underprivileged. We cannot express how much we appreciate your generous donation.

Ciao!

Critic reviews

"Robert Essig excels at creating an ominous atmosphere leading to a sense of impending doom. He allows his audience to grasp a well written storyline before feeding a heaping spoonful of humiliation, torture and death."—Horror Bookworm Reviews

Loving Gibson and Essig!! Recommend 100%

I binge listened this one. So much fun and perfectly narrated by Drew Gibson - he's one of my favorites in this genre. Essig is a new author to me, and now I want to check out all his stuff.

*This is a great title if you don't want the grossest cannibal murder lit out there, or if you want a nice introduction to the more gruesome side of horror lit... or I'm just disgusting.

Good Soup

This audible was provided to me free for an honest review. Deliciously gruesome romp of entertainment. The entire narrative is the verbal depiction of, “is this a decomp stain?” Would recommend.

Tasty!!

I've been enjoying Robert Essig's books. Broth House is superb. The story line keeps you interested. The narrator is fantastic. I will be moving on to Philth Pig! I hope to see it on Audible soon!

Are you hungry?

Soup has always been a favorite of mine… not sure I will ever feel the same way again. This was a brutal read. Hope you have a strong stomach. Read on.
