Purgatory
*Signed by Mike Schuhler
Grant Radburn swore he'd never return to the cursed island they call Purgatory, but when Devon MacArthur and his son, Paul, appear at his doorstep seeking his help with a troubling 'problem,' Grant's nightmare begins anew. As they set sail across the chilling waters of Lake Superior towards the ominous mountain and the sinister woods that haunt his memories, Grant senses that something is dreadfully amiss.
This time, it's different. This time, it's worse. The tolling of the bells echoes with a sinister secret, and Purgatory is far from uninhabited.
As the horrors of the island unravel, can any of them escape with their lives intact?
Dive into this heart-pounding horror novella, perfect for enthusiasts of supernatural and cosmic thrillers, evoking the chilling spirit of H.P. Lovecraft's "The Shadow over Innsmouth." Brace yourself for a journey into darkness you won't soon forget.
