Synopsis

Would you like to know?
Would you like to know the answer to any question? 
Anything. Ask away. One question, though. So what would your question be?But be warned...the price for such knowledge is steep. The answer to any question you have. 
And all it will cost you is your face.
Your mouth. Your nose. Your ears and your eyes.
You will still live. But I will take your face.
So what is important enough to you that you would give up so much? What question is worth the price?

Anto did not have an easy life. He was ignored and beaten as a child. When he turns sixteen, he runs away from home and wanders the countryside, almost dying along the way. But eventually, he finds a new life with glimmers of hope and love. But to hold on to that love, Anto will have to confront his worst nightmare.

Faceless is a dark fantasy by Jeff Monday that asks a simple question: Would you sacrifice everything for the answer to a single question?

Review: 

I found this book through Kindle Unlimited.  

I was super surprised by this book.  The cover is super creepy and I wasn't sure I was going to like it.  I am not a big horror reader. But my wife convinced me I would love it.  She was right.  Anton has led a tragic life, and when he escapes to try to find a better one even that seems to slip through his grasp.  Finally finding his way he discovers a new family, and creates a good life and the boy who got away finds him again.  When tragedy strikes the family Anton will do anything to save his soul mate, even consult with the face stealer to get the answers he needs. 

This is a beautiful story of tragedy, love and how far people will go to save the ones they love.
