In Boone, an eight-year-old tells the poignant story of an aging, crippled farmer who has a psychotic love for his invalid wife.

Cousins Billy and Roy, constantly spying on tenants of their grandmother's rental houses, bite off more than they can chew in the haunting Gothic tale Annie.

A dying ten-year-old takes revenge on his tormentor in Serpentus Saragossii.
 

In the suspenseful Tembo Makaburi, karma catches up with a greedy, arrogant big game hunter.
 

In the final novella, The Angel Years, the Johnsons get an unexpected visitor while trying to protect a family secret.
 

"Stories that hit your heart, your sense of whimsy and your memories of different times - – writing about the south of the fifties in a nostalgic and loving way - with the touch of darkness."  - Amazon reviewer
