"I haven't been this scared since Pet Semetery." The world's leading physicist attempts to use the science of string theory to bring his daughter back from the dead. From Maine author Mark LaFlamme, a story almost too frightening to finish.
"Like Stephen King at his best, LaFlamme doesn't stop at visual terror. He takes us inside the diseased minds of the most psychologically intriguing characters I've ever seen. We all have our demons, but we keep them inside. Not LaFlamme. He flaunts them in hideous detail."
-- David Griffiths, writer, editor
"If you've enjoyed the work of another Maine horror writer, hold on to your socks, because there's a new guy in town." -- Tina L. Morin
"It's full of shivers down your spine but the best one comes on the last page" -- Diane Fuller
"Wonderfully written and way too real for this scaredy cat." -- Holly Rahmlow

Teaser Sample chapter Cover blurb Press release Media Reviews
The world's leading physicist, in a
delirium of genius, attempts to use the science that has consumed his life
to bring his 8-year-old daughter back from the dead. This is Theodore
Currie. The tormented scientist builds a Victorian home in the Maine
woods, fashioned after the dead
girl's dollhouse. There, surrounded by his daughter's most cherished
items, he waits for her to
come home to him. He waits for an alignment of the planets, the power of
the solstice, and the intricacies of quantum physics to come into play.
With toys to entice,
The Pink Room is a place where science meets terror. It's a year later in Mulberry, Maine. Government agents lurk like scavengers, hungry for all the knowledge the great physicist imparted before his grisly demise. But a new man has moved into the spectacular Victorian. This is Jonathan Cain, a writer with a story to tell and a dead wife to mourn. Sooner or later, Cain will hear the haunting sound of Fur Elise from the snow globe and he will step into the Pink Room. And he will wonder if there is something magical about the place, after all - something magical and powerful enough to bring his beloved back to him. Another man gone mad with grief, Cain will sit among a little girl's things and wait for the solstice.
A tale of depthless grief, cutting edge science, and the horror of tampering with the laws of God and the universe. Your fascination with the science will give way only to fear. And few things are more fearful than terrors draped in pink. The Pink Room is now available through Booklocker. It can also be ordered at Amazon and the Barnes & Noble website. Stay tuned for details about Delirium Tremens, a novel so frightening, it might drive you to drink. Before you go, click the snow globe for music from the Pink Room.
