Some boys are born to inherit pain. Others become it.
In the mist choked hollows of 1930s Appalachia, fourteen year old Henry has learned to live by silence. Raised by a violent uncle and haunted by a mother he never knew, Henry moves through the world with quiet fury until one tragic friendship shatters what little innocence he had left.
As the cruelty of the town closes in, and secrets long buried rise to the surface, Henry builds a hidden refuge deep in the woods. But the past isn't done with him yet. And when the truth finally comes to light, it will burn through everything in its path.
Told with lyrical grit and unflinching heart, Henry: Memoirs of a Killer is a Southern Gothic coming of age story about survival, justice, and what it means to reclaim your voice even if it means losing everything else.
