RALEIGH, N.C. - ncarol.com -- Regal House Publishing announces its new publication St. Ulphia's Dead by Scott Lambridis who earned a degree in neurobiology from the University of Virginia. He's toured the Midwest with a progressive rock band, founded an indie press and performance series, earned an MFA from San Francisco State University, tended a 40-acre olive farm, and read a book from every country of the world. He wrote St. Ulphia's Dead during his daughter's naps during a year in France.

About St. Ulphia's Dead
Disgraced medical researcher Mirs and his skeptical new supervisor Jo arrive on the remote island of St. Ulphia to investigate an outbreak of mass psychosis. The villagers claim they're being possessed—one by one—by a cannibalistic demon known as the Wendigo.

While unraveling the villagers' strange tales, Mirs and Jo are drawn into a tangle of local politics, mysterious disappearances, and impossible contradictions. When the missing begin to reappear, the boundaries between fact and folklore become dangerously thin. As tensions rise and trust fractures, Mirs and Jo must confront the possibility that the madness around them may not be entirely imagined—or may not be the villagers' alone.

Praise for St. Ulphia's Dead
St. Ulphia's Dead is as propulsive as it is exquisitely written, and unlike any other love story I've ever encountered. A wild, unexpected, and darkly comic ride, highly recommended to anybody with a beating heart."
—Peter Orner, author of The Gossip Columnist's Daughter

"Scott Lambridis deftly weaves together absurdity and humor with the weighty issues of life, death, and love. In this ingenious novel, nothing is as it appears, including the mere fact of existence. A delightful and wildly inventive debut!"
—Laurie Ann Doyle, award-winning author of World Gone Missing: Stories
