Lost Man's Lane

"""The best Scott Carson novel yet! Horror writers are always being compared to Stephen King, quite often without the quality to back up the comparison, but here we have the real deal! In this beautifully executed coming-of-age horror, Carson weaves a tale all his own, replete with unsettling evil and the questions of love and loss, of trust and family, that plague us all. LOST MAN'S LANE creeped me out, and I loved every shiver!""--Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of THE HOUSE OF LAST RESORT and ROAD OF BONES ""With LOST MAN'S LANE, Scott Carson fuses a gothic spellbinder steeped in old-American lore with the piercing ache of a coming-of-age story, bittersweet and filled with longing. With echoes of Ray Bradbury and Peter Straub, it's a dazzling, genuinely terrifying novel that hovers darkly in your head long after you finish.""--Megan Abbott, New York Times bestselling author of BEWARE THE WOMAN ""Nobody makes you believe the unbelievable better than Scott Carson. LOST MAN'S LANE channels Stephen King's very best.""--Robert Dugoni, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Tracy Crosswhite Series ""Scott Carson has done it again. LOST MAN'S LANE is a richly imagined, terrifying trip down memory lane. High school keggers and small town legends, first loves and heartbreaks, serpents and secrets -- it's all here in one action-packed story. Poignant, nostalgic, and profoundly unsettling, I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. Carson is a spellbinding storyteller and LOST MAN'S LANE is his best yet."" --Richard Chizmar, New York Times bestselling author of Gwendy's Final Task and Becoming the Boogeyman"
