Todd Rigney has a new book out called M’rth. It’s currently available as a Kindle Edition on Amazon.

Rigney is the guy who wrote the novel Found upon which Scott Schirmer’s film of the same name was based. The two penned the screenplay for the film together. Rigney also cameoed as the video store clerk.rigney Found has since spawned the spinoff Headless, which is one of this year’s most brutal (if not THE most brutal) flicks. Rigney wasn’t directly involved in the making of that film, but Headless did exist as a movie-within-the-story in his original novel.

Anyhow, Rigney’s follow-up to Found has been a long time coming and is now available. Here’s the synopsis (via Amazon):
