Synopsis
More than a decade after his previous collection appeared, here is a new volume of David Case's macabre and sardonic stories that is destined to stand alongside his earlier three compilations of superlative dark fiction.
Taking its title from his World Fantasy Award - nominated zombie apocalypse story set in the Florida Keys, this new volume contains three further uncollected tales, along with an original conte cruel and two major novellas original to this volume. As a special bonus, the deluxe signed edition contains an additional two stories which are variant drafts.
In these powerful narratives of psycho-sexual torture and vengeance, a husband reveals how he let his wife suffer a horrible fate... an ominous mound and a pile of women's clothes are the only clues to an amnesiac's past... an explorer discovers that his captor's have a very limited menu... the loss a soldier's family leads to a terrible revenge... and we learn the surprising origin of one of the most famous creatures in the pantheon of monsters...
