Publisher Description
Treading the line between crime thriller, detective story, and horror novel, The Sanctuary is a chilling portrayal of an upside down world, where evil is the norm and spaces once considered safe havens hold unimaginable terror. When their car breaks down outside of the small Argentinian village of Los Huemules, indie filmmaker Alvaro and his wife, muse, and lead actress Alicia consider it a minor inconvenience. Seeking shelter in the town's lone motel, they settle in for a night of decadent fun, but after Alicia disappears without a trace the following morning, Alvaro embarks on an increasingly desperate quest to find her. Armed only with a video camera and with a growing sense of dread, Alvaro begins gradually uncovering the town's many dark secrets, with each revelation being more horrific than the last. "Comparable to a David Lynch nightmare."
