ACID is a dark, sinister, and violent story of demon possession, murder, and revenge--set in a third-world country.

The Rothchild Asylum for the Criminally Insane, established in 1857, closed in the 1970s. Dark secrets regarding criminal activity remain hidden within the asylum. Retired detective Phil Sawyer and his friend Lorelei Crawford search for that evidence--and discover that someone yet today will kill to keep those secrets.

The year was 1921, and Sheriff Bill Brewster had a murder on his hands. His only possible link to the killer was a pair of blood-stained coveralls discovered in a trash can. Forensic science was in its infancy in the early 1920s, but in the hands of Dr. Winslow Tegan, the coroner, those coveralls would provide a number of clues to the killer's identity.

The year was 1873. Joe Argile was down on his luck--and damned mad at the world. He'd lost his last dollar in a card game and then, after an altercation with the bartender, the sheriff had told him to get out of town. The big Colt on Argile's hip had helped him out before when he was broke, and he saw his opportunity to rob the lumber yard in the next town down the trail.
