Gay writer Scott Heim's first novel, Mysterious Skin, established him as a powerful voice in queer literature in 1995, and the film adaptation (directed by New Queer Cinema vanguard Gregg Araki and starring AfterElton Hot 100 vet Joseph Gordon-Levitt in a stark, image-shattering performance) brought the author's moody meditation on small-town alienation to a broader audience.

Fittingly enough, Heim's upcoming novel, We Disappear, has been given a "trailer" of sorts to give curious readers a feel for what the book is all about.

The book is called a "psychological thriller about obsession, addiction, and loss." So ... you know, you might want to wait until after breakfast if you can't handle that kind of atmosphere on an empty stomach.

We Disappear hits shelves February 26th and is available for pre-order. Learn more about Heim at his website. If you haven't seen Mysterious Skin check out the trailer below (and NetFlix it!).
