A mad scientist’s creation that has made an important, dire decision. A dinner party for five that is heavy with blood and consequence. A family outing in a cemetery.In this haunting collection, Thomas Smith blurs the line between reality as we know it and those Other Places…Thomas Smith is an award-winning newspaper reporter, TV news producer, writer, playwright, and essayist. He writes in many genres and may actually be the only writer to ever be involved in projects with Stephen King and The Rev. Rick Warren at the same time."Thomas is one of those outstanding Southern writers - seemingly soft, languid, maybe even lazy, when actually what he is, is cotton wrapped about a razor. Half the time you don't even know he's gotten you until it's too late."-Charles L. Grant; New York Times and USA Today bestselling author
