“I-35
is a nail-biter of a road novel that crosses into the darkest
territories of the soul. Brett Selmont brings serious game to this
riveting thriller, and it takes some turns you absolutely will not see
coming. Buckle up!”
Jonathan Maberry, NYT’s Bestseller, Pine Deep Trilogy, Extinction Machine, multiple Bram Stoker award winner
"London,
Steinbeck and Kerouac all wrote books with highways running through
them. By venturing into horror and the supernatural, Selmont charts a
new direction for this classic form. "I-35" takes the reader on a trip
into madness and damnation but you'll be glad to have gone along for the
ride."
William Hjortsberg, NYT’s Bestseller, Falling Angel (Angel Heart)
"Tough,
incisive, evocative, adroit, tough. Selmont takes you on a genuinely
gripping journey down a highway that will inspire you to lock your car
as automatically as you buckle your seat belt. You've been waiting for
this one…a nifty piece of work by a talented writer.”

I-35
is the story of David, a loner in his late 20s from New York City who
suffers from blackout migraines and has a penchant for painkillers. He
wakes one morning, freezing in the backseat of his car, 1,500 miles from
home, with no idea how he got there. After hearing a horrifying
voicemail, he embarks on a harrowing journey through America's
heartland, searching for his estranged brother and his brother's wife,
while attempting to piece together his own fractured memory. Along the
road, David meets a cast of strange and disturbing characters who become
suspects in his clouded and paranoid mind. And just as the clues and
dead bodies begin to add up; a chance encounter at a seedy Oklahoma
diner leads him to Shawna--a beautiful girl, shrouded in mystery, who
escorts him down a vertiginous path to the end of the I-35
highway...where a shocking truth is revealed.
