A supernatural whodunit told in a vignette-style at breakneck speed, Consumption & Other Vices, will leave you gasping for breath, checking the locks on your house at night.

Book Synopsis

Bloomington. A town where on the surface nothing really happens. Where men at the diner never flip the page of the paper held in front of them. Where pointer fingers rise from the steering wheel of every passing car. Finds itself irrevocably changed after two of its own wind up dead. But, Detective Andrews and partner Shupbert know what it takes to dig deep. Like their lives depend on it. A whirlwind of drugs, deception, sex, and an unusual dark energy lurks below the surface of this quaint town, and it's a race against the clock to catch our killer before the walls of their sanity crumble down. A supernatural whodunit told in a vignette-style at breakneck speed, Consumption & Other Vices, will leave you gasping for breath, checking the locks on your house at night.

Review Quotes

"Take a hard-boiled detective story, then strip it of all its unnecessary parts until its ready to run on a NASCAR track. Tell it in a dreamy narrative of a Vertigo comic, and you have Tyler Dempsey's Consumption and Other Vices." -Bucky Sinister, author of Black Hole

"Tyler Dempsey is all consuming. He is a small time crucifix. Cheap nail polish and glitter. Feel this, read this, know this. Then read it again." -Tyler Dillow, author of Watershed
