Nathan's parents devised gruesome, cautionary tales for him and his sister, essentially constructing an invisible fence around the yard and keeping the boy close to home where he'd be safe. Such barriers are not so easy to discard in later life. Nathan no longer believes his parent's stories, and yet they still confine him. But despite his efforts, something from his parents' cautionary tales threatens to creep beneath that invisible border and the enclosed yard might not be as safe and secure as it always seemed--Jacket p. [2].
Here's a ghost story with a burn so slow that you'll forget you're reading a horror novella until the punch lands. Add Norman Prentiss to the list of writers I really must read more of.
