Coming in September from All Due Respect: REPETITION KILLS YOU by Tom Leins

TAMPA, Fla. - July 10, 2018 - PRLog -- Down & Out Books is pleased to announce that REPETITION KILLS YOU by Tom Leins will be published by its imprint All Due Respect on September 21, 2018 in trade paperback and ebook formats.

About REPETITION KILLS YOU …

Experimental noir. A novel-in-stories. A literary jigsaw puzzle.

The book comprises 26 short stories, presented in alphabetical order, from 'Actress on a Mattress' to 'Zero Sum'. Combined in different ways, they tell a larger, more complex story. The narrative timeline is warped, like a blood-soaked Möbius Strip. It goes round in circles—like a deranged animal chasing its own tail.

The content is brutal and provocative: small-town pornography, gun-running, mutilation and violent, blood-streaked stories of revenge. The cast list includes sex offenders, serial killers, bare-knuckle fighters, carnies and corrupt cops. And a private eye with a dark past—and very little future.

Welcome to Paignton Noir.
