A Quagmire in the Pine Barrens

By Mathew Sabatino

In the heart of the Pine Barrens, a farmer's final photograph may capture more than wildflowers-it may reveal a monster.

Legends whisper of the Jersey Devil, of Ol' Scratch himself, but what lurks among the pines is more than superstition. It is hunger. It is power. It is the price of selling what cannot be bought back. When the final tree falls, when the woods are gone, what remains of us? Every man has his price. The devil is waiting to hear yours.

In the spirit of Washington Irving and Nathaniel Hawthorne, this modern, gothic, yarn pulses with the same dread that once bound faith and folklore. But the devil no longer bargains for souls-he trades in greed, land, and the last unspoiled wilderness.
