A lifelong victim of abuse, Karin ends the cycle by killing her husband, Danny. But then she accidentally starts it all over again, and Danny comes back even worse than in life, an automaton of sadistic impulses.

Deadweight is brutal, grim, and in-your-face. It’s also touching and hopeful. But mostly it’s brutal. There’s no comfort food: No humor to air out the horrendous violence that stomps, like Danny, through these pages.

You'll cringe at how well the author describes violence. But it's not "torture porn." It's a story of people, of humanity broken, saved, mutilated, abandoned at the graveside. At the end there's a payoff for all the blood and guts.
