Produktbeschreibung
Melanie's increasingly disturbing journal entries have to be delusional ravings-if they're not, there's something terrible out there, snatching runaways in the night and spiriting them off to somewhere unspeakable. In his debut collection of horror stories, The Devil Took Her, short fiction writer Michael Botur, recognized in his native New Zealand as "one of the most original story writers of his generation," offers twelve terrifying and bizarre tales that take us to the dark extremes of human imagination. A woman trapped in a coal cellar discovers that in order to live, part of her needs to die. A teen prankster's vicious joke against her tutor brings revenge served cold. Cutting class turns terrifying for two high school introverts. A powerful-yet-paranoid publisher turns a young man's magazine internship into a nightmare. And more . . .
