From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Drawing Blood is a 1993 novel, the second novel from author Poppy Z. Brite. The novel concerns Trevor McGee, a comic book artist, and Zachary Bosch, a bisexual hacker, and their arrival in Missing Mile, North Carolina, a fictional town featured in Brite's previous novel, Lost Souls.
When a man set himself on fire in the Los Angeles, California location of a commercial mailbox company, copies of this novel were saturated with the smell of burnt flesh. They were sold by book dealer Barry R. Levin as collectibles.[1]
