What to expect

A mysterious Iraq war veteran with a horribly scarred face … A disturbed young man in a strange mountain town … A masked preacher with a terrible secret … Amidst a firestorm of violence, betrayal, and horror, their three worlds will eventually collide in an old mining shack buried deep in the mountains.

Corrosion, the shattering debut novel by Jon Bassoff, is equal parts Jim Thompson, Flannery O’Connor, and William Faulkner and an unforgettable journey into the underbelly of crime and passion. Drawn from the darkest corners of the human experience, it is sure to haunt listeners for years to come.

Critics Review

  • “Bassoff confronts directly the traumatic stress disorder of our world today and tears off its mask, even if the face must follow.”

    New York Magazine

  • “Sharp, original, fierce, a real gut-ripper.”

    Tom Piccirilli, author of The Walls of the Castle

  • “A book that cries out to be filmed by David Lynch…The debut novel from the unique Jon Bassoff begins a whole new genre: Corrosive Noir.”

    Ken Bruen, author of the Jack Taylor series

  • “Corrosion is a beautifully bleak noir novel that stretches the boundaries of the genre to its breaking point. A virtuoso performance by the terrific Jon Bassoff.”

    Jason Starr, author of Gotham
