The soil on Crow Island holds secrets, and they're ready to be unearthed. J. H. Markert returns with a surreal horror novel, perfect for fans of Graveyard Shift and What Moves the Dead. Eight years ago, a boy took up an axe and slaughtered a dozen people. That odd, troubled boy, Jericho Dodd, has been dead and buried in his father's yard for years, but ever since that massacre, Crow Island has been a dark and unsettling place. When Jericho's father begins digging up the past he buried, a compulsion to dig sweeps over the island and soon everyone else is obsessively churning up dirt, desperate to uncover buried secrets. The compulsion leads to violence and as neighbors turn against each other, the island's famous tupelo honey, harvested from trees deep in a swamp, changes too. As dread and paranoia seep up from the ground, it becomes clear that the island itself needs something from its residents-before it digs itself apart for good. Be careful what you unearth from the dirt before this surreal horror novel can worm its way into you too.
