"Deeply atmospheric and evocative, Beauchamp provides a consistently dark and foreboding collection that drips with Southern Gothic" Ryan Thomas Labee, author of Killing My Flesh Without You, and Editor-In-Chief of Pyre Magazine. "Beauchamp is a masterful weaver of horrors who works in prose the way Bosch and Goya work in oils. The Ozarks are teeming with unfathomable, long-forgotten terrors great and small, and the Missouri author will ensure they're all embedded in your psyche by the time you've read Horror In The Highlands"

A soliloquy from a ghost annoyed by a haunted-house tour coming through her home; a demonic viewfinder that’s indebted to M.R. James; and a bloodthirsty Ayn Rand wielding a chainsaw.

It’s a short-story collection debut indebted to the great American tradition of the incredible and sometimes terrifying prospects of a New World.

One caregiver died. One rule changed. One door closed that was supposed to stay open.

Jack London gehört zu den großen Erzählern des Abenteuers und der Wildnis. Seine Geschichten sind geprägt von der rauen Natur des Nordens, von Grenzerfahrungen und vom unerbittlichen Kampf ums Überleben. Mit Der Ruf der Wildnis und Wolfsblut schuf London zwei der bekanntesten Tier- und Abenteuerromane der Weltliteratur. In ihnen erzählt er vom Spannungsfeld zwischen Zivilisation und Wildnis, von Instinkt, Freiheit und Anpassung. Die Geschichten von Buck und Wolfsblut gehören bis heute zu den eindringlichsten literarischen Darstellungen des Lebens im hohen Norden.
