When he's not holding down a dead-end job or lurking in his mother's basement, Tony Anastos spends his time shooting ultra-low-budget horror flicks. After meeting his sexy fame-hungry coworker Anna, he sees an opportunity to launch his career into cult stardom. But when Tony's plan to jolt their next film's Kickstarter into overdrive calls for real blood, he will sacrifice the last bit of his humanity for a shot at recognition. But it makes sense. Look at him. The stuff he makes, I mean, he's the first one you expect. "The First One You Expect is a fast, sexy, fun, dangerous read, and enough of a taste to make me hope Cesare ventures into crime fiction regularly." -Spinetingler Magazine "An engaging, contemporary thriller with a cutting-edge narrative, and characters so real they could live next door." -Rio Youers, author of Westlake Soul and Point Hollow " A] hugely entertaining parable of the be-careful-what-you-wish-for kind." -Crime Fiction Lover
