Sweetside Motel

ADULT HORROR

In this gothic novella, a young Chinese Canadian woman flees Toronto under the shadow of a pandemic and related anti-Asian racism to start a new life. When her car breaks down in a small town, she is forced to quarantine with two charming but disquieting brothers who run the local urban legend, a roadside motor inn nicknamed the Suicide Motel. 

With the threat of xenophobic violence and her past catching up to her, she must convince the brothers to help her escape. But she doesn’t know who she can trust, including herself, when everyone has their ghosts.

“Such a strange blend, this mix of nice and not-so-nice, the reader is never quite sure who to be most scared of here.” – Lee Murray, IFP Guest Editor
