Dead.
Some evils are so great that they transcend death. In Brandon Massey’s ‘The Patriarch, ‘ a young writer travels to the hushed backwoods of Mississippi, where dangerous secrets surface as a generations-old feud comes to bone-chilling new life. . .
Buried.
The souls of the mistreated always find a way to be heard. In L.A. Banks’s ‘Ev’ry Shut Eye Ain’t Sleep, ‘ violent visions haunt a man–until he’s handed an opportunity to right the wrongs of the past and prevent unspeakable acts from occurring once again. . .
Forgotten.
When horrors are covered up and lost, our ancestors must find a way–even in death–to tell their tales. In Tananarive Due’s ‘Ghost Summer, ‘ ancestors haunt the nights of two children. And when a grisly discovery is made, these ancestors will make their mark on both the dead and the living. . .
‘Massey ventures into areas unexplored by most other black novelists. The result is artful and stunning.’ —
Chicago Tribune
‘Tananarive Due is creating classics.’ –Tina Mc Elroy Ansa
‘Banks’s writing is lush and detailed, fully bringing her characters to life (or unlife), weaving a complex world of Good vs. Evil with its own intricate hierarchy.’ —
Fangoria Magazine
