I cannot provide a synopsis for "Grim Trixter" by Michael Laimo based on the source provided. The source describes Brandy Schwan's poetry collection, not Laimo's novel. The source mentions that Schwan has gained fans among horror authors including Michael Laimo, Kealan Patrick Burke, Weston Ochse, and Brian Knight, and that Laimo wrote an introduction to her collection. However, this information does not relate to the plot, characters, or events of "Grim Trixter." Without relevant source material about Laimo's actual novel, I cannot construct the requested synopsis that names the protagonist and describes the story's central tension.
Genres: horror, thriller, dark-fantasy
Vibes: atmospheric, dark, suspenseful
Tropes: dark-protagonist, unreliable-narrator
