Peyote Trip is a cubicle-bound employee in the bureaucratic landscape of Hell, specifically working in the Deals Department. His daily grind involves manipulating humans on Earth into signing away their souls for personal gain. To secure a long-awaited promotion and escape the monotony of his department, Peyote targets the Harrisons, a wealthy family with dark secrets. He needs to convince a final member of the bloodline to sign a contract, while the narrative shifts between his office politics and the family’s summer vacation at a lakeside resort where buried traumas surface.
This book serves readers who enjoy dark satire mixed with supernatural horror and high-stakes corporate parodies. It appeals to those interested in the mechanics of moral compromise and the idea that institutional dysfunction exists even in the afterlife. Readers finish the story with a cynical perspective on human greed and a detailed look at how historical family patterns influence individual choices. It provides an unconventional view of damnation, trading traditional fire and brimstone for red tape and manipulative psychological contracts.
Practical, clear-cut and escapist; an easy read.
