Our world is one of magic, both shadowed and bright.
We don’t see it. Distracted by the daily slog, we walk right by it; we pass it on the drive home from work. But it’s there, teeming from the sidewalk cracks, seething in the stare of a striking stranger, burbling in the creek out back. And when we do pay attention, we invite those powers to be our doom–or our salvation.
In SIX O’CLOCK HOUSE & OTHER STRANGE TALES, meet a struggling bartender who swears the frogs outside are calling her name. A greenhouse worker lulled by an unlikely psychopomp. A twenty-something screw up who turns to his widowed neighbor–and a ghost–for redemption.
Some of these characters deserve rough justice; others, a second chance. Open these pages to curse them, to cheer them on, to cry with them at what they’ve lost–or gained. Just be careful… the waters of these stories run deep and the path through is both treacherous and dark.
