Description of BURY THIS:
If twenty-five years can discover the internet, the cell phone, this thing called the iPod, can twenty-five years discover the secret of a girl murdered, abandoned, by the side of the road? That is the haunting premise of Bury This, an impressionistic literary thriller about the murder of a young girl in small-town Michigan in 1979. 

Praise for Bury This: 
"Andrea Portes is a natural, and she creates a fever dream with Bury This. Portes writes with such cool grace we almost forget to be astonished by her narrative's complexity. Bury This is exhilarating, a raw, gripping, wintry Gothic, a less patrician--and perhaps more shattering--version of Donna Tartt's The Secret History. Read it and be transfixed.”--Matthew Specktor, American Dream Machine 

"Witty, gothic, sparse, and poetic at its heart, Bury This is a page turner from the first sentence and a journey into the dark mysteries of the human condition."--Frank Bill, author of Crimes in Southern Indiana and Donnybrook

“Andrea Portes writes with the tip of a knife, shape-shifting between characters and laying bare their darkest secrets. Bury This is electrifying and elegiac, sensual and suspenseful.”-Dylan Landis, author of Normal People Don't Live Like This 

“Portes’s short chapters and staccato narration make for a quick and compulsive read…as a study in human nature, it’s a triumph.” —Publishers Weekly

Hope to see you there!
