Erik Hofstatter

The Crabian Heart: A SynopsisIrena and her thirteen-year-old son Ales are refugees living in a lonely seaside town of Dover, England. Ales has never seen an ocean, let alone one that glows purple when he’s nearby.

Soon, purple crustaceans crawl behind his every step and women with pincers threaten to recondition his sensitive heart.Erik Hofstatter is a dark fiction writer and a member of the Horror Writers Association.
