Ma kahi mamao loa a ma kahi o nā moʻolelo fiction hou loa i heluhelu ai i kēia makahiki. Me Ke piʻi nei ka pouli, Ua hoʻomanaʻo mai ʻo Brian Moreland iaʻu no ke aha ʻo ia kekahi o kaʻu mau punahele ʻelua (ʻaʻole ʻo King, Laymon, Ketchum ... a pēlā aku.)

Ma hope o ka hihia me ka wahine a ke kāne hewa, holo ka mea hoʻokani piano seedy Smitty Three Fingers i ke kūlanakauhale a ʻike ʻo ia iā ia e kalai ana i nā niho ʻelepani ma kahi Louisiana honky-tonk nona e ka bootlegger Horace Croker a me kāna wahine trophy, Grace. Hele mai nā poʻe i The Grinnin 'Gator no nā kaikamahine ʻona a me nā burlesque, akā hoʻi hou lākou no Big George, mālama ka Crig alligator Croker i ka loko iʻa i hope. Ua lohe ʻia ʻo Croker ua hānai ʻo ia i nā wahine a me nā ʻenemi o mua i kāna pipi, no laila ke hoʻomaka ʻo Smitty lāua ʻo Grace i kahi hana koʻikoʻi ... he aha ka mea e hewa ai?

Hoʻonāukiuki ʻia e nā hanana ʻoiaʻiʻo, kāwili ʻo Gator Bait i ka lawaiʻa paʻakikī (ʻo James M. Kain's ʻO ka Postman Mau Pele ʻelua manawa) me ka weliweli o nā mea (Tobe Hooper's Eaten Alive) e hana i kahi moʻolelo riveting of suspense.
Lawe iaʻu i mau mokuna ʻelua e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i ke kaila o Howe, akā ua kū ʻo ia i kāna alakō. Minamina, e like me kaʻu e noʻonoʻo nei "e ʻoluʻolu loa kēia," ua hina i lalo.
Ua kākau maikaʻi ʻia nā huaʻōlelo (Horace a me kāna gator. ʻO Big George, ʻaihue i ka hōʻike).
Ua hōʻike ʻia kekahi o kaʻu mau peeve hānai ma aneʻi, akā ʻaʻole paha pilikia ka hapa nui o nā mea heluhelu me lākou (ʻoi aku wau i ke kākau ʻana i kahi ke ʻano o ke kāne. ʻAʻole wau makemake i nā flashbacks o nā wahi, ʻo ia hoʻi ma hana pōkole).

Aia nō kāna mākau kākau, ʻike wale wau ʻaʻole wau e noʻonoʻo e pili ana i ka hopena.

ʻAʻohe wahi e holo ai!

Makemake nui ʻo Gillian Foster. Ua loaʻa iā ia kahi leka ʻano ʻē i loko o ka leka i kēlā me kēia manawa aku nei. Mai ia manawa, ʻike ʻo ia i nā kiʻi aka ma nā wahi āpau. Ke hele mai nei nona. Frantic e loaʻa kahi wahi palekana, haʻalele ʻo ia i ka home me kāna kaikamahine ʻo Meg, aia wale nō ʻaʻohe ala e ʻoi aku ai i ka poʻe alualu.

Iwakālua mau makahiki ma hope mai, ua ʻae ʻia ʻo Gillian i ka Haukino Haukino ʻo Hawthorne. Loaʻa iā Meg kahi leka like a ʻimi ʻia e kahi mana ʻike ʻole. He maʻi noʻonoʻo paha ʻo Meg, a he ʻoiaʻiʻo paha kēia mau mea ola? A inā pēlā, ua kūpono paha kona makuahine i kēlā mau makahiki i hala? ʻAʻohe wahi e peʻe ai?

"He aka ia, hemo ʻole o nā hiʻohiʻona āpau, a ke nānā nei ia ma ka puka aniani o ka lumi lumi, e kū pololei ana iā ia."

ʻO kēia ka puke mua mai Mr. Lacey me Samhain Publishing. Hopohopo paha ʻoe i kēlā mau hōʻaiʻē haumāna? ʻO kēlā pila (a ʻē aʻe paha) bila? Manaʻo wau ua loaʻa iā Mr. Lacey kekahi mau moemoeā ma luna o lākou. Laki no mākou, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo ia i kona manaʻo ʻeleʻele e wili i kahi leʻaleʻa diabolō.

Aia kekahi mele Teenage Bottlerocket i kāhea ʻia, "Ua hele mai lākou mai nā aka", makemake mau wau e kākau i kahi moʻolelo pōkole e pili ana i kēlā, akā manaʻo wau He ʻaiʻē e uku ʻia hoʻopiha i ka slot i ʻole wau e pono.

Nui nā leʻaleʻa i kēia, ʻaʻole ma ka alelo, ka ʻano B-kiʻi ʻoniʻoni, ma ka heluhelu wale ʻana i ke ʻano maʻalahi o Lacey. Manaʻo nā mea āpau maoli. A ʻaʻole ia he maʻalea maʻalahi i ka lawe ʻana i nā mea ʻoniʻoni a lawe mai iā lākou i ka honua maoli. Huki pono ʻo Lacey iā ia.

Hoʻomaka ʻo ia iā mākou me nā makau wale e lele i loko o kā mākou hoʻolauna iā Meg a me Brian. Naʻu, he mea liʻiliʻi e like me ke kelepona phantom e kāhea ana ma ka hana, a me ke kahua ʻoiaʻiʻo kokoke i ka hoʻomaka e hoʻopaʻa koke iā ʻoe i kahi ʻano a kau iā ʻoe i loko o ko lākou kāmaʻa. A pēlā e manaʻo ʻia ai e hana.

Aia pū kekahi me ke kaumaha o ko Meg home haki. Ke ulu nei me kahi makuahine hiki ke lilo, he nati paha, a he makuakāne e manaʻoʻiʻo i kahi ʻoihana kahi kūpono nona, ua hoʻonohonoho ʻo Meg e ʻike i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ma hope o nā mea āpau, inā makemake ʻo ia ʻaʻole paha.

ʻO kaʻu mau pilikia wale nō (a he mau mea liʻiliʻi ia) ʻo ka maʻalahi o ka ʻae ʻana o Brian e ukali iā Meg (akā hoʻi, ua hāʻule wau i nā kaikamahine i ka ʻike mua a ʻike paha ua ukali wau iā lākou ma nā huakaʻi) a me ke ʻano o ka hoʻopau koke ʻana. . Makemake au i kahi mea hou aʻe ma ka hope hope.

ʻO kahi novella mua paʻa loa mai kahi leo hoʻohiki hou i ka weliweli. He ʻaiʻē e uku ʻia Hāʻawi i nā kākau ʻoi, nā makaʻu e lele mai nā ʻaoʻao, a me kā Lacey flair no ka hoʻohenehene ʻana iā ʻoe me nā mea e kali nei i ka pouli. ʻO kēia ka hoʻomaka i kahi ʻoihana leʻaleʻa.

Welina mai i ka Mercy House, kahi home hoʻomaha loa o ke aupuni i ʻike maka ʻole ʻia, maʻemaʻe, a me ka hoʻonohonoho pono. . . akā ʻaʻohe mea i ʻoi aku ka mamao mai ka ʻoiaʻiʻo. I loko o ka puke moʻolelo hoʻohenehene a Adam Cesare, e loaʻa ai i ka poʻe kamaʻāina ke aloha iki — he hū weliweli wale nō ia o ka weliweli hiki ʻole ke ʻike ʻia.
 
Ua ʻike ʻo Harriet Laurel i ka pilau ma Mercy House ke kū ʻo ia i ka wāwae i loko, a lawe mai i laila e kūʻē i kāna makemake e kāna keiki, ʻo Don, a me kāna wahine, ʻo Nikki. I nā wā mua o ka dementia, ua huhū ʻo Harriet iā Nikki, e hoʻopiʻi nei i kāna hūnōna wahine no ka hāʻawi ʻole i nā moʻopuna. Eia nō naʻe ʻo Harriet e ʻae e hoʻomaʻemaʻe kona noʻonoʻo ke hele ʻo ia i ka paepae. Inā ʻaʻole no kēlā ʻaʻala huhū.
 
ʻO Arnold Piper kahi kanawalukūmālima mau makahiki o ex-Marine, he kāne haʻaheo nāna i mālama iā ia iho i kona ola a pau. Akā ʻaʻole hou. Kumakaia ʻia e kona kino ʻelemakule, ke aʻo nei ʻo Arnold i nā hoʻāʻo ʻana i ola ai i ka wā kahiko ma Korea i haehae ʻia e ke kaua ma kahi o nā huhū o kēlā me kēia lā o ka ʻelemakule. ʻAʻole maopopo iā ia aia kāna moe hiamoe nui i mua ona.
 
He kahu hānai maikaʻi ʻo Sarah Campbell nona ke aloha i hohola ʻia a hiki i ka wahi haki ma kahi hana i hana ʻole pinepine ʻia ʻo Mercy House. Akā i kēia manawa ʻo Sarah ka papa inoa o nā hana ʻoluʻolu e pili ana i ka huli weliweli. No kekahi mea hewa e hana nei ma Mercy House. Kekahi mea pouli a pala. . . a make loa.

ʻO Adam Cesare kekahi o kaʻu mea kākau punahele hou. ʻO kāna mau hana i hala iho nei aʻu i hauʻoli ai– ʻO Ke kauwela hana (kāna puke moʻolelo koʻikoʻi loa-a me kaʻu mea punahele), Pō wikiō (kahi leʻaleʻa B-kiʻiʻoniʻoni maikaʻi loa), a Nā ʻōiwi–E hōʻoia ia kēia kanaka i kahi IT.

Ua ʻike wau i ka hele ʻana i Hale aloha (Cesare puke hou mai Random / Hydra) ʻo ka inoa o ka pāʻani i kēia manawa he gore a me ka mayhem manawa he ʻumi. Ma kēlā alo, ua helu ʻo ia. Māmā ʻo Cesare iā mākou i ka hana ma ka hoʻolauna ʻana iā mākou i kekahi mau lālā o nā limahana o ka Mercy House a me kekahi o kona poʻe kamaʻāina. Ke manaʻo wale ʻoe ʻaʻole e kū ka puke i kona kūlana gory, hiki mākou i ka papa ʻaina. Mai kēlā manawa mai, ke lele nei ke koko a me nā ʻāpana o ke kino. ʻO ka huhū a me kekahi mea e wehewehe ʻole ana i ke kino i lawe i nā mea hoʻolimalima wahine ma Mercy House a me ka make, ka wahine, a me ka make hou aʻe. Aia kekahi kaua turf o nā ʻano like ʻole.

ʻO kaʻu mau ʻāpana punahele ʻelua ʻo ia ʻo Arnold Piper's Vietnam flashback me Klopic (make make ʻo Klopic!), A me ka hōʻike "ʻaina" i ʻōlelo ʻia aʻe nei. Hōʻike ka mea mua i ka hiki iā Cesare ma ke ʻano he mea kākau: "Aia ka ʻeha komo ma lalo pono o ka papalina o Klopic a ua hiolo kona poʻo āpau i loko e like me he puka ʻeleʻele i hana ʻia i loko o kekahi o kona mau manaʻo." ʻOiai ke hiʻohiʻona "ʻaina" e hāʻawi iā ʻoe i kona ʻano no ka nui loa: "Aia kekahi mea aniani a me ka tubular i ʻike ʻia i waena o nā slashes i ka huki ʻana o Marta i nā ʻōpū o ka wahine me nā lina o kāna ʻoka."

ʻO kekahi o ko Cesare ikaika ma ke ʻano he mea kākau, ʻo kona mākaukau i ka hana wikiwiki ʻana i nā mea hoihoi. Ua hauʻoli wau i ka hoʻokumu ʻia o nā mea he nui ma Mercy House (ʻo Nikki lāua ʻo Paulo), akā manaʻo wau ua hala ʻo ia i kekahi mau manawa kūpono me Sarah lāua ʻo Teddy. ʻAʻole hiki iaʻu ke noʻonoʻo akā ua maʻalahi ʻo Sarah e pili ana i ke ʻano o kehena i kau ʻia iā ia (e pili ana i ka mea a Cesare e hōʻike maoli nei iā mākou), ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me ka leo kani ʻole a Gail, Queen Bea a me Harriet i haʻi aku ai. ka hana ʻino. ʻO Teddy, ua manaʻo wau ua liʻiliʻi loa kāna kuleana i loko o ka puke. Me he mea lā ua hiki iā Cesare ke hana hou me ke kāne.

Makemake nā poʻe a Cesare i ka ʻaoʻao nastier o kāna hana. Pili lākou i kēia. Minamina, ʻo kaʻu mau ʻāpana punahele o ka puke aia i ka hapa mua. Hale aloha ua heluhelu maikaʻi maikaʻi ʻia. ʻO wau iho, ke nānā nei i mua i ka piʻo hou o Adam i kahi mea me ka hohonu. ʻIke wau iā ia nā ʻokiʻoki a ʻaʻole hiki ke kali iā ia e komo i ka luʻu.
