The World Below by David Peak
Witches, LSD psychosis, and the slippery nature of truth. The World Below is about the limitless horror of grief and the unbreakable bonds of blood. It is a story of occultations, of light and dark, and of unfathomable realities that hide in plain sight.

Two families—the Bowles and the Underhills—are cursed by an act of violence that forever echoes through time, and their long-simmering feud reignites when teenager Ornithan Bowles suddenly disappears. Believing the Underhills responsible, several members of Orn’s family lay siege to the home of their rivals—only to awaken a restless spirit from its prison between two worlds. Now, several years later, Letitia Underhill, fresh out of prison and looking to begin anew, tells her version of events to the host of a prime-time news program in hopes of putting an end to her family’s curse once and for all.
