Mike is a tattoo musician jogging his own shop,

and Deb is the piercing musician he hires to round out his studio’s motley crew of four. The final either expects is romance, but that’s what they obtain because they follow their off-kilter professions and like lives into full and total devastation.

When Mike follows a growing trend and tattoos the ashes of deceased family members into several clients’ tattoo designs, he does not have any idea that it’ll one day provide the solution – and solace – he will sorely want. And in regards to a Great and Useful Hurt when the life of the serial killer tragically collides using the lives in the tattoo shop, Mike and Deb will stop at nothing in their search for revenge, actually if this means stepping outside the known boundaries of existence and death. Printer ink that is filled with crematory ashes, a sociopathic killer, and pain in its rawest type…this is likely to hurt.

When the hope of redemption operates headlong in to the dark side of life’s chaos, we are left with one of the most haunting thrillers in recent memory. A Good and Useful Harm provides the bittersweet essence of life using the sting of the needle in pores and skin.
