"A brash, unapologetic, and often funny novel with a delightful nasty streak. I enjoyed the hell out of this one."-Ronald Malfi, bestselling author of Small Town Horror<p><br></p><p>Disturbed pre-med student Keely Rexroth is unable to take 'no' for an answer when she is denied entry into a prestigious research program. As her ambition curdles into dark mania, she embarks on her own curriculum of twisted experimentation, fighting to keep her secrets from a campus priest who is too perceptive for his own good.</p><p><br></p><p>If she can't get what she deserves on her own merit, she'll eliminate her competition.</p><p><br></p><p>This horror-thriller is a chilling mix of dark academia, psychological terror, gallows humor, and revenge fantasy that is perfect for fans of Gone Girl, Maeve Fly, Darkly Dreaming Dexter, and You.</p><p><br></p><p>"Viggy Parr Hampton's Much Too Vulgar crackles with deftly crafted motives, intensely high stakes, and characters as sharply written as the scalpels they wield. Add to this a dose of black humor on par with Brett Easton Ellis and you've got yourself a horror novel you will not want to miss." -Christa Carmen, Bram Stoker Award-winning and Shirley Jackson Award-nominated author of The Daughters of Block Island</p><p><br></p><p>"Much Too Vulgar is a delightfully fun roller-coaster ride through a depraved mind. Never before have I rooted so hard for the villain to come out on top! Viggy Parr Hampton has such an incredible way of painting a vivid world filled with characters you love to hate and hate to love. This was a fast-paced page turner that I couldn't put down! It crawled itself into my mind with each new word I read and it sits there still, well after I've finished. I can't recommend this book enough! It's so good!"-Angel Van Atta, author of In The Tall Trees</p><p><br></p><p>"Move over Dexter. Meet Keely. Part thriller, part savage satirical takedown of pre-med academia, Much Too Vulgar is rich with comedic terror. Viggy writes with a razor-sharp wit that would leave Carl Hiaasen's jaw on the floor. I haven't had this much fun following a character since Jeff Lindsay's Darkly Dreaming Dexter. This is going to be the year's can't miss hit." -Gage Greenwood, author of Bunker Dogs</p><p><br></p>
