‘The Boy with the Spider Face’ by AJ Franks Coming November 26th from Crystal Lake Publishing.
Short description: Jeff Pritchet isn’t much different from other teenage boys, with one exception: He has the face of a spider. Ever the loner, Jeff’s world is one day upended by the arrival of new student, Aarav Jain. As the boys grow close and become a target for hatred, Jeff discovers a sinister side he never knew he had, proving that emotions can be deadlier than venom.
