Palmetto Boy

By D.A. Jobe

She thought she'd escaped the monster that tormented her family decades ago...

Alane is determined to give her 12-year-old son, Ray the stable childhood she didn't have. After moving into a new apartment, Alane works two jobs to make ends meet, leaving Ray alone in the evenings. Ray loves his new independence, but soon that love turns to fear as he begins to hear strange sounds from the attic crawl space. Doors slam where there aren't any. Something is chewing a hole in his bedroom ceiling.

Long-buried memories of an old family tale surface, a monster Alane and her little brother called Palmetto Boy. Alane must confront the creature that has haunted her for years and destroy it for good-before it rips away her son and the future she's fighting to build.

Palmetto Boy is a novel about the inescapable legacy of family folklore and the risks we take to keep those we love safe.
