The Mad and the MacAbre

Jeff Strand

Humor / Horror

Two novella-length tales of the twisted and the bizarre...the frightening and the deranged...the mad and the macabre... KUTTER by Jeff Strand: Charlie, a vicious, heartless serial killer, takes home a stray Boston Terrier he finds in a park. Can this dog make him into a better person? REMAINS by Michael McBride: The discovery of human remains prompts a new search for seven missing theology students. To learn what happened, their families must recreate their final days and decipher a series of cryptic clues, but nothing can prepare them for the truth.
