Something evil is stalking the streets and underground tunnels of Savannah. It is the result of a century and a half of pent-up hate. Billy Simon will be put to the ultimate test as he battles a wicked entity for the survival of his family and his soul. Only when he uncovers the dark secrets that have been hidden for decades does he begin to realize what he is up against and what he must sacrifice to win. (The following is an excerpt from the book) There was a slight breeze in the thick humid air. Although the air was warm, it still had the effect of giving me a chill. I listened as we walked in silence and could almost hear the sound of someone calling my name ever so softly in the wind. Was it that girl I dreamt about hovering over my bed or was it him? The wind picked up slightly and felt like it was enveloping me with its invisible tentacles. The balmy air should have felt embracing, but instead it felt like moist hate.

The Wild Zone

From New York Times bestselling author of All the Wrong Places comes the suspenseful story of a seemingly casual bet among friends gone terrifyingly awry. This is how it starts. With a joke. Two brothers—Will and Jeff—and their friend Tom are out one night at their favorite South Beach bar and decide to make a bet on who can be the first to seduce a mysterious-looking young woman drinking by herself. Pretty, dark-haired, and blue-eyed Suzy has an innocent, almost ordinary girl-next-door way about her. Little do they know the secrets she’s hiding from the outside world, particularly those having to do with the daily horror she experiences under the watchful eye of her abusive husband. Little do they know she has an agenda of her own. Little do they know their harmless bet is about to take on a life of its own, a life full of deadly consequences for all concerned. Fielding is continually praised for her “heart-pounding” (Booklist) brand of storytelling, full of “chillingly satisfying twists” (People). There’s certainly no going back once you’ve entered The Wild Zone.

Walt Whitman's Multitudes

  • Type: Book

  • Publisher: Peter Lang

In the fifteen years before the publication of Leaves of Grass (1855), Walt Whitman constructed three authoritative voices by which he engaged the upheavals endemic to the Industrial Revolution. Through these public personas, found mostly in his journalism, Whitman offered remedies for American artisans who had lost their economic autonomy and status. Instead of attacking broad forces beyond worker control, Whitman blamed artisans for oppressing themselves through the temptations of consumerism and affectation. Walt Whitman's Multitudes places the first edition of Leaves of Grass on par with Whitman's journalism and exposes a writer different from most poetry-directed analyses. In doing so, it traces Whitman's public voice as he wrestled intimately with the debates of his day: conspicuous consumption, nativism, slavery, and, through it all, labor and the status of the new working class.
