I had a great time reading this and huge thank you to Inkshares for sending it along – thanks, Noah!
For each of the four novellas, I talk about how each related to a specific author in Kill Creek. You may recall; Sam McGarver, TC Moore, Sebastian Cole and Daniel Slaughter. Authors that remind us all of real writers we know and love. This was the world created in Kill Creek and it is deepened here, having work by these authors woven into each story.
From the jacket:
In The Door in the Field, a construction worker’s bad day becomes a far worse night when drinks at an off-the-books bar send him down an unforeseeably bloody path.
In The Boy in the Woods, something evil has infected the counselors at a summer camp, and a young boy will have to do anything he can to survive the night.
In One Half of a Child’s Face, a woman spying on her daughter and ex-husband notices an odd painting hanging in an empty apartment . . . one that seems to call to the building’s children.
In Wear Your Secret Like a Stone, a big-box clerk discovers that her book pick for a Halloween display echoes a dark secret hidden beneath the idyllic facade of her hometown.
With this collection, Scott Thomas digs his hands into the soil of the American heartland and establishes himself as a master of Midwestern Gothic.
