Winston by Rick Powell

From the Father of Mannequins, Winston is a tale that lingers like the numb pull of a black hole.

Julie lives with her mother in a rundown part of town, struggling to adapt to her mom’s unsettling new boyfriend. On a fateful walk home, she meets Winston, an enigmatic old man whose presence is as comforting as it is mysterious. As their connection deepens, Julie’s world begins to shift in ways she never imagined.

Who is Winston, and what secrets does he carry that could lift Julie out of her adversity or pull her into something far darker?
