Description

In Milfheim: The Twisted, Damian returns to his hometown for the first vacation of his university life, only to discover how little he understands about the place where he grew up. Placed in an orphanage for reasons he has never known, he spent his teenage years in foster care before becoming a college student. Now, he hopes to enjoy his break reconnecting with friends and meeting new people while staying in a house owned by Helen. Milfheim seems as beautiful as ever—a city neither too large nor too small—but familiarity soon gives way to uncertainty. The longer Damian lives under Helen’s roof, the more he senses another side to her beneath her welcoming smile. As he begins to notice the dark corners he overlooked as a child, he discovers that many of the people who shaped his early life are connected in ways he never imagined. Why does Helen become uneasy whenever the past comes up? What has Damian’s foster mother left unsaid? And what do the women around him truly feel? Desire, love, maternal affection, friendship, envy, jealousy, anger, and sorrow intertwine as Damian takes his first steps into adulthood. Caught in this storm of conflicting emotions, he is drawn deeper into his hometown’s hidden, forbidden secrets.
