Andy Davidson

Born and raised in Arkansas, Andy Davidson is the Bram Stoker Award-Nominated author of In the Valley of the Sun. Andy currently lives in Georgia with his wife and holds an MFA in fiction from the University of Mississippi. His work has also appeared in publications such as Drunken Boat, Carve magazine, the Santa Clara Review and other journals.

In Andy’s debut novel, Travis Stillwell spends his nights searching out women in honky-tonk bars on the back roads of Texas. What he does with them doesn’t make him proud – it just quiets the demons for a little while. But when he crosses paths with a mysterious pal-skinned girl, he wakes up weak and bloodied, with no memory of the night before. Suddenly Travis undergoes a wild transformation and develops a need to feed. A Texas State Ranger, on the hunt for Travis, must decide how far into the dark-ness he’ll go for the sake of justice.

This ‘gorgeously-written nightmare’ is a gruesome blend of vampire horror, a serial killer’s tale and police procedural.
