We Don't Hear Crickets Anymore -- Kel Byron, Paperback

Spencer wakes one morning to find that something has moved into his old hunting blind, and it left him a startling image on his trail camera. Willow hasn't left her house in months, but the arrival of an uninvited guest in her home makes it hard to stay. Nathan, haunted by memories of the last camping trip he ever took with his childhood friend, comes back to see the shoe tree one last time. These six Midwestern Gothic short stories encompass the mundane, folkloric horror of the Great Lakes, with all the nostalgia of a campfire story.
