Six Strange Stories and "H.P. Lovecraft and Time"
Dear Friends, Readers, Scoffers and others,
Yes, I'm at it again. My previous volumes of speculative stories and novellas have found a nice and nicely sized audience, although I write these stories because I'm impelled to do so.
Only one, Cul-de-sac, is strictly horror/terror, and it's a doozey. The rest are what are called slow-burns to make your hair stand up in the tradition of M.R. James, E.F. Benson, Sheridan Le Fanu, Wilkie Collins, and Algernon Blackwood. Of the six stories, two were published in anthologies, including Britain's prestigious BEST NEW HORRORS #29. Another was published in another collection, and the essay appeared in Culture Cult online magazine.
In After Sunset in the Second Drawing Room Garden a hip young couple buy the ideal Beverly Hills house perfect for their Television series lifestyle. Only to discover that one special area holds decades old inhabitants who still exert eerie control.
Two U.S. retirees rent a Regency mansion in the English countryside in The Tapping at Cranburg Grange. But what is that repetitive sound only one of them can hear -- a sound that once found out can never be forgotten?
A lighthearted bicycle tour by an uncle and nephew goes awry leading the elder to an eldritch church with a curious sight that once touched will forever change the very fabric of time in Strange on My Hands.
Also: A dull bachelor party weekend in suburban Connecticut turns into a night of inexplicable terror. A corporate executive scorns any hint of the supernatural... until he becomes part of it. A flawed mirror with unusual properties aids a middle-aged man protecting his meal-ticket marriage.
These stories and an essay on H.P. Lovecraft's most original work, with comments by the horror-meister's real life schoolmates, comprise a compelling volume by an author whose earlier work in the field has been called "genius."
