From the author of the Western Sins Trilogy, Anathema, and The World Carried On comes a new collection of five chilling stories. Using his signature pared-down prose, Channing Cornwall weaves tales of supernatural suspense and horror. Tales dealing with the timeless themes of death, grief, vengeance, and punishment that can draw the most malevolent or tender beings back from the afterlife.
When sudden rainstorms bring on an epidemic of suicide across the world in Something Terrible Came With the Rain, a therapist is left in its wake to confront the very struggle he's spent his life helping people cope with. A widower in mourning returns to a cabin of sentimental significance to his marriage in the hopes of begging his dearly departed to haunt him in Please Haunt Me. In The Hex of Men, a Puritan town gets more than it bargained for when one of the women they persecute as a witch turns out to be truly that. Decades after the police kill a notorious child murderer in He Whistled, a young boy learns that even death cannot stop his pursuits. Finally, in Pink Phone, as a father is coming to terms with his missing daughter's probable death, she suddenly contacts him on the pink phone in her bedroom, but she doesn't know where she is, and something is after her.
As somber as they are shocking, this collection of stories will keep you up as much from fear as reflection.
