The Lonely Motel, Book 1

By: Duncan Ralston

Narrated by: Joe Hempel

"I believe pain lingers," Angel said. "Do I believe in spirits? In the supernatural? Probably not."

The Lonely Motel holds many dark secrets... and Room 6 just might possess the worst of them all.

Angel knows all about pain. His mother died in this room. He's researched its history. Today he's come back to end it, no matter the cost, once and for all.

Shyla, a plus-sized escort, thinks the stories Angel tells her can't be true. Secrets so vile, you won't want to let them inside you.

But the Lonely Motel doesn't forget. It doesn't forgive. And it always claims its victim.

WARNING: Don't buy this book if you have a weak stomach, if you're easily disturbed, or if you're looking for a light horror listen. THIS IS NOT THAT BOOK. Seriously. You've been warned. (For signed copies, please visit my website.)

Critic reviews

"Trust me when I say, this is messed up." - MATT SHAW, author of Sick B*stards.

"This book is a wet dream of abnormal sexual psychology." - Mort Stone, My Indie Muse

Really good!

I loved it and felt grossed out which is rare lol

So excited I stumbled upon this read

Speechless

Oh My Days!!! I have no words!! This was absolutely amazing and I swear this did not go where I thought it was going. Whew!! I will say if you are triggered easily this is NOT the book to read. If you like a somewhat gorey psychological story this is a good one.

wow

what did i just read? it was not good in the best way possible. twisted and definitely didn’t see the ending coming

Shyla and Angel - a love story

Sure, you may listen and think it's the grossest thing you have ever heard. Sure, you my not look at traffic cones the same ever again.

But at its core, it's about overcoming trauma, and wanting to be found, and loved, in whatever capacity that may be.

So sure, you may have just puked up your lunch, or breakfast, whatever. But it'll stay with you and it will give you all the feels by the end.

Great Narrator! Decent Story.

A great quick read. I enjoyed the pacing and storytelling. It feels very complete. It was a little predictable, but that doesn’t really does affect itself impact. It has a lot of graphic details and the author does a great job putting you in the scenes, but there were a few times that it felt like the characters weren’t really doing anything. My biggest gripe would be the ending feels a bit odd—like one of the characters’ actions feels a bit plot convenient and not exactly natural.
