Tearful Surrender is a trilogy of surreal horror stories from Cassandra Sechler: Tearful Surrender, Chained, and The Homecoming. Each story is filled with intensity, despair, and murder using nature, sexuality, and violence as metaphor to represent the sadness of what it is to be a monster in this lonely world. Each story takes place in 1982, the year of the Jupiter Effect hysteria, with great emphasis on the unforgiving qualities of love, sex, and death, the mysteries of the occult, fantasies, and misery.
