Description
They call her Blister. She’s a hideously disfigured 23-year-old woman, living in a shed next to her father’s house, hidden away from the world.
Jason Tray is a successful cartoonist, banished to his agent’s lakeside cabin for a few days of mandatory rest and relaxation. One night, while hanging out with a couple of the locals at a dive bar, he takes them up on their offer to go “see Blister,” having no idea what they’re talking about.
He peeks through the window at the most nightmarish thing he’s ever seen.
In the morning, he wakes up, hung over and regretful. He’s better than this. Does he need to apologize?

I received a free copy of this audio book from the author. I picked it based on the cover and the brief description. I expected some creepy story, maybe horror, but it was so much more. It is the story of a horribly disfigured girl feared and made fun of by her small backwoods town. Her gun toting daddy keeps her in a shed out back. Cartoonist Jason, banished to the lake in her town, befriends her. There is a part that is gruesome and horrific but mostly it is about the power of friendship that turns to love., with some added comedy. Engrossing story with great characters. Ignatz the dog is great. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
