About the Book



The characters from "Summer of Night" return as adults. Having sabotaged his career and his marriage, Dale Stewart returns to Elm Haven, his boyhood home, and moves in to the one-time residence of his friend who died in an "accident" in 1960. But Dale is not alone--he's been followed by private demons who twist his reality into horrifying new forms.



From the Back Cover



A once-respected college professor and novelist, Dale Stewart has sabotaged his career and his marriage -- and now darkness is closing in on him. In the last hours of Halloween he has returned to the dying town of Elm Haven, his boyhood home, where he hopes to find peace in isolation. But moving into a long-deserted farmhouse on the far outskirts of town -- the one-time residence of a strange and brilliant friend who lost his young life in a grisly "accident" back in the terrible summer of 1960 -- is only the latest in his long succession of recent mistakes. Because Dale is not alone here. He has been followed to this house of shadows by private demons who are now twisting his reality into horrifying new forms. And a thick, blanketing early snow is starting to fall ...
