Off the Beaten Path - Paperback

by Laurie Jones (Editor), Wofford Lee Jones (Author)

There are many paths in life we all travel. Some lead us into the light, but others lead us down an ever-dimming pathway into darkness. Take a walk with me, if you dare, down a winding trail in the woods - and perhaps we might stray off the track along the way. In Off the Beaten Path, you'll join a couple on their hike and soon find that one of them is hiding a terrible truth-and is willing to go to horrific lengths to keep it that way. In Stranded, you will cross paths with a man who can't quite rid himself of an itch he has developed. Frostbite allows you access into a strip club at the edge of the woods, where two patrons find out first-hand one stripper's deep, dark secret. In Ten-Penny Nailed, you'll wander deep into the forest, where one high school student has devised a plan to stand up to the school bully. Walk along the desolate sands of a moonlit beach in The Scuttling with two teens who have been warned that the beautiful setting hides a deadly danger. In Rage, a minor traffic violation sends one man down darker highways than he could ever have imagined. And Dead Bait drops you into open water with two fishermen who aim to catch that legendary 'big one' by any means necessary-even if they die trying. Let us wander into the darkening forest together and see what secrets lurk just off the beaten path...
