Böcker av Jack Cady

In Street, Jack Cady transforms the tropes of the "true crime thriller" into a moving meditation on a place, its people, and what must be done to save those whom society has forgotten.

Cady's keen and profound insight into the collective psyche of the modern world-both from a narrative standpoint and from a critical cultural analysis-are captured in this collection. To Jack Cady, phantoms are vital aspects of who we are. His stories never lose sight of the marvelous mystery of the fantastic.

Death upsets the quiet equilibrium and rustic charm of a small town on the Washington State peninsula when a well-intentioned blacksmith performs an unexpected civic duty for the town. Evil removed, the death of the predator allows a more ancient evil to slip into the waters of the canal.

Singleton had simple needs, and he spoke of them simply. He hauled cargo across the U.S., and his life was that of a drifter. Singleton chose the road. He chose the endless hauling and empty destinations. Not because he was fleeing any sort of stable, constant life, but because he was working. And working was all he knew.
