A MEMPHIS DJ HIRES RECENT WORLD WAR II VETERAN Bull Ingram to find
Ramblin' John Hastur, a mysterious bluesman whose dark, driving music --
broadcast at ever-shifting frequencies by a phantom radio station -- is
said to make living men insane and dead men rise. A bootlegged snippet
of Hastur's strange, brooding tune fills Bull with an inexplicably
murderous rage. Driven to find the song's mysterious singer, Bull hears
rumors that the bluesman sold his soul to the Devil. But as Bull follows
Hastur's trail into the eerie backwoods of Arkansas, he'll learn there
are forces much more malevolent than the Devil and reckonings more
painful than Hell . . . "Great Yuggoth, what a great debut novel! John
Hornor Jacobs establishes himself as an author to heed." -- W. H.
