Whitechapel, November 1888: Jack the Ripper is committing his last known murder and beneath the bed on which he''s butchering his victim cowers a fifteen-year-old boy. So begin the adventures of Trevor Bentley: a boy who embarked on an errand of mercy and ended up on a quest for vengeance, a boy who will bring the horrors of the Ripper to the New World.
Two families have come to the California mountains expecting a fun weekend camping trip. What they will find instead is terror in the form of a violent psychopath and his mother, a powerful witch.
Something deadly has come to town-a slimy, slithering...thing like nothing anyone has seen before. With its dull eyes and its hideous mouth, it's always hunting for a new host to burrow into, and humans are the perfect prey. But the truly shocking part is not what it does to you when it invades your body-it's what it makes you do to others.

It's a hot August morning in 1963.

"If, like me, you consider Ray Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way Comes an American classic, you are in for a real treat. This book will put you in the same vicarious world that no author has entered since the master." -Denver Rocky Mountain News
Using ancient black magic, a dangerous, vindictive maniac is made all-powerful by his ability to become invisible. Raping and murdering his way around the States, he is biding his time before fulfilling his one desire-to get even with the high school belle who rejected him years before.
A group of deformed, cannibalistic, humanoid creatures live in the woods...as some unlucky travelers are about to find out.
"This novel is prime Laymon...featuring characters reduced to appetites both carnal and carnivorous and a plot flensed free of all but the bloody bones of storytelling.... [A] good example of the pulpy approach that has earned the late author a loyal readership for three decades." -Publishers Weekly
