Sam and his three best friends, Nick, Jeff and Scout, find themselves in the middle of a hot boring, summer.Looking for something to break the boredom, they escape into the dark desert behind Sam’s humble double-wide trailer with a cooler full of sodas with plans to have a night of fun around a bonfire in a secluded clearing. Surrounded by darkness and the strange sounds of the dark desert night, Scott tells the tragic story of little Mary Jenkins and an innocent game of hide-and-seek—gone terribly, terribly wrong. What happens when a not-so-friendly neighborhood rivalry ends in tragedy?Vengeance from the dark, dark beyond.

Excerpt from Sacred Allegories: The Shadow of the Cross; The Distant Hills; The Old Man's Home; The King's MessengersIt is not, indeed, unmixed with a feeling Of regret that we imitate the Author's example, who, in the singleness of his heart, was unprepared for the effect on the public mind Ot°his own truthful pictures, and pained at the impression which universally prevailed, that the story was a true one and declare (as he did in a subsequent edition of the work) that the events recorded are entirely fictitious, and that nothing is true in the story of I The Old Man's Home but the graphic description of the scenes where it is placed, and the moral which it inculcates.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Old Western Trail. From Red River north and all along was herd after herd waterbound by high water in the rivers. Our outfit lay over nearly a week on the South Canadian, but we were not alone, for there were five other herds waiting for the river to go down. This river had tumbled over her banks for several days, and the driftwood that was coming down would have made it dangerous swimming for cattle. We were expected to arrive in Dodge early in June, but when we reached the North Fork of the Canadian, we were two weeks behind time. Old George Carter, the owner of the herd, was growing very impatient about us, for he had had no word from us after we had crossed Red River at Doan scrossing.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
