From Little Stack
Take the Secret Santa episode of The Office and add a little Stephen King for the perfect holiday horror treat.
Lussi Meyer is so desperate to work in publishing, she takes the first job she’s offered. Only, she never expected that working in horror would be, well, horrifying. The workplace pranks escalate until the office Secret Santa where she receives a demonic looking gift she doesn’t understand. And when her co-workers start dying gruesome deaths, she realizes she has to figure out who gave her this object before it destroys the company, or worse, takes her soul.
The Office meets Stephen King, dressed up in holiday tinsel, in this fun, festive, and frightening horror-comedy set during the horror publishing boom of the "80s, by New York Times best-selling satirist Andrew Shaffer.
Out of work for months, Lussi Meyer is desperate to work anywhere in publishing. Prestigious Blackwood-Patterson isn't the perfect fit, but a bizarre set of circumstances leads to her hire and a firm mandate: Lussi must find the next horror superstar to compete with Stephen King, Anne Rice, and Peter Straub. It's the "80s, after all, and horror is the hottest genre.
But as soon as she arrives, Lussi finds herself the target of her co-workers' mean-spirited pranks. The hazing reaches its peak during the company's annual Secret Santa gift exchange, when Lussi receives a demonic-looking object that she recognizes but doesn't understand. Suddenly, her coworkers begin falling victim to a series of horrific accidents akin to a George Romero movie, and Lussi suspects that her gift is involved.
With the help of her former author, the flamboyant Fabien Nightingale, Lussi must track down her anonymous Secret Santa and figure out the true meaning of the cursed object in her possession before it destroys the company—and her soul.
