Lunacy Machine: Twisted Tales of Unfortunate Times

By Criss Karver

"WELCOME TO AN INNER WORLD I CALL MY NASTY PLACE..." In 1943, Emma Leigh Graves fell from the covered bridge overlooking the drought-stricken Silver Creek. The only two witnesses to her death dragged the young woman's body into a shallow hole beneath the bridge where the water once flowed. When the rains returned and the creek ran strong, the evidence of that deadly night was quickly swallowed up by rushing water, thriving weeds, and loose rocks. Sixty years later, on his deathbed, one of the two men involved reveals the truth about Emma Leigh Graves to his grandson, and a search for the golden key she wore around her neck begins-but how far will the boy go to find it? "South of the Covered Bridge" is just one of 38 carefully crafted tales of suspense included in this collection of narrative poems. Enter the warped world of The Lunacy Machine, and experience the misery, mystery, and madness for yourself
