In Nice Guys, obsession grows quietly, like rot beneath floorboards or roots pressing through soil.
This collection of dark, psychologically charged stories follows men who believe themselves gentle, rational, and deserving, even as the world around them begins to fracture under the weight of that belief. They tell themselves they are misunderstood. They insist they are harmless. They mistake entitlement for love and control for devotion.
But these stories are not only theirs.
The women they fixate on resist, disappear, transform, or refuse to remain small. Some slip beyond reach. Some turn toward the natural world, toward violence, toward something older and less forgiving. Forests listen. Bodies change. Time bends. What was once contained begins to push back.
Blending psychological horror, speculative fiction, and dark realism, Nice Guys explores obsession, possession, and the quiet terror of being seen as something to be owned. These are stories about love distorted beyond recognition, and about what survives when it finally breaks.
