For childhood friends Gabe, Xavier, Tavo, Paul, and Bimbo, death has always been close. Hurricanes. Car accidents. Gang violence. Suicide. Estamos rodeados de fantasmas was Gabe’s grandmother’s refrain. We are surrounded by ghosts. But this time is different. Bimbo's mom has been shot dead. We’re gonna kill the guys who killed her Bimbo swears. And they all agree.

It was never just a job. Becoming a hitman was the only way Mario could cover his young daughter's medical expenses. But before long, his family is left in pieces, and he's barely even put a dent in the stack of bills. Then he's presented with an offer: one last score that will either pull him out of poverty forever or put a bullet in the back of his skull. A man named Juanca needs help stealing $2 million dollars from a drug cartel. Together, they begin a journey to an underworld where unspeakable horrors happen every day.

Santa Muerte, protegeme... Austin, Texas. Tu t'appelles Fernando, et tu es mexicain. Immigré clandestin. Profession ? Dealer. Un beau jour... Non, oublie "beau". Un jour, donc, tu es enlevé par les membres d'un gang méchamment tatoués qui ont aussi capturé ton pote Nestor. Pas ton meilleur souvenir, ça : tu dois les regarder le torturer et lui trancher la tête. Le message est clair : ici, c'est chez eux. Fernando croit en Dieu, et en plein d'autres trucs. Fernando jure en espagnol, et hésite à affronter seul ses ennemis.

Fernando es un ilegal y un vendedor de droga de poca monta que ha conocido días mejores. Tras escapar de México hacia los Estados Unidos para alejarse de un grupo de personas que lo querían muerto, ve cómo, de nuevo, la fatalidad se ceba con él: secuestros, maras, brujería, santería, matones rusos, muerte, violencia desenfrenada y el atisbo de un acechante horror ancestral se dan la mano en este vertiginoso noir con ciertas dosis de weird.

Addiction starts like a sweet lullaby sung by a trusted loved one. It washes away the pains of the day and wraps you in the warmness of the womb where nothing hurts and every dream is possible. Yet soon enough, this warm state of bliss becomes a cold shiver, the ecstasy and dreams become nightmares, yet we can't stop listening to the lullaby. We crave to hear the siren song as it rips us apart.

Addiction is the perpetual epidemic, where swarms of human moths flutter to the flames of hell. Because that warm blanket of a heroin high, that joyful intoxication of a pint of vodka, that electric energy from a line of cocaine, over time leaves you with a cold loneliness and a bitter heart. Relationships destroyed, bodies deteriorate, loved ones lost, yet the craving continues for that which is killing us—living, as the title suggests, like an Orphan of Bliss.

A strange final message from a ghost ship, comes alive with the voices of the past. Listen or die. "The Song of The Lady Rose" by Gabino Iglesias is one of nine short horror stories in Nightfire's audio anthology.

Enforcer and drug dealer Fernando has seen better days. On his way home from work, some heavily-tattooed gangsters throw him in the back of a car and take him to an abandoned house, where they saw off his friend's head and feed the kid's fingers to...something. Their message is clear: this is their territory, now. But Fernando isn't put down that easily. Using the assistance of a Santeria priestess, an insane Puerto Rican pop sensation, a very human dog, and a Russian hitman, he'll build the courage (and firepower) he'll need to fight a gangbanger who's a bit more than human....

In this mosaic horror/crime novel, ghosts and old gods guide the hands of those caught up in a violent struggle to save the soul of the American Southwest. A man tasked with shuttling children over the border believes the Virgin Mary is guiding him toward final justice. A woman offers colonizer blood to the Mother of Chaos. A boy joins corpse destroyers to seek vengeance for the death of his father. These stories intertwine with those of a vengeful spirit and a hungry creature to paint a timely, compelling pulpy portrait of revenge, family, and hope.

Buried in debt due to his young daughter’s illness, his marriage at the brink, Mario reluctantly takes a job as a hitman, surprising himself with his proclivity for violence. After tragedy destroys the life he knew, Mario agrees to one final job: Hijack a cartel’s cash shipment before it reaches Mexico. Along with an old friend and a cartel-insider named Juanca, Mario sets off on the near-suicidal mission, which will leave him with either a cool $200,000 or a bullet in the skull. But the path to reward or ruin is never as straight as it seems.
