Spook Lights Ii

Y'all gather round for thirteen more tales of Southern Gothic horror: Boys find evil in their favorite sweet treat, a perfume shop that makes more than scents, a hurricane carries a mother's vengeance, a conjure woman lies dying, unable to name a successor... This is Gothic horror Southern style-shadowy rice fields, creatures that assume humanity at will-where even the most damaged and delicate have their power. Spook Lights II takes us again South with stories that are graceful in the telling, and beautifully edgy in their details. Humans and haints traverse historic land in search of magic and revenge, finding salvation and justice in unexpected ways; each tale unwinds magnificently in Royce's hands. -Linda D.
