Albert Greene was born into a world that gnawed at him like a slow rot. Poverty, violence, and a relentless tide of misfortune shaped him into a hollow-eyed specter long before his soul fully shattered. But when his little sister, the only light in his wretched existence, is brutally taken from him, something in Albert snaps.
What emerges from the wreckage of his humanity is not a man, but a force of nature-a grinning, philosophical monstrosity who sees the world for the abattoir it is. Armed with a butcher's knife and a mind warped by grief and nihilism, Albert descends into the American frontier like a plague wind, leaving only blood and fire in his wake.
Influenced by the raw, existential horror of Blood Meridian and the psychological torment of The Road, Down to Zero is a harrowing journey into the birth of a monster-one who doesn't just kill, but unmakes his victims, reducing them to nothing, just as the world did to him.
