One year after the startling events of reader-favourites “Shed” and “Bled," we go back to the island for another startling tale, this time in the autumn of 1978. “Dread” is the story of Mac and Dave McLeod, thirty-something bachelor brothers who are back in the tiny island town of Dovetail Cove after more than a decade away. They're here for a funeral, despite Mac's looming feeling that things aren't quite right in their childhood home, nor anywhere else across town. It doesn't take long for a mysterious visitor at the wake to embroil the McLeod boys and the island doc in a game of whodunit involving one of Police Chief Birkhead's unsolved files. Things get macabre when the boys discover a link to their parents in the mess. And the visitor who starts it all might just be a walking cadaver gone missing out from under the coroner's nose.
