Based on the Port St. Lucie Legend, this paranormal thriller novel revives a serial killer with “crackling dialogue . . . [and] a Satanic aura” (Hunter Shea, author of Tortures of the Damnedand The Montauk Monster). Back in the 1970s, a series of bizarre incidents occurred at what has since been known as “The Devil Tree.” Beneath this ancient denizen, evil was wrought by a sick serial killer, calling upon forces most sinister and dark. People were hung there . . . and bodies buried there . . . exhumed by the police. Overcome by superstition, some tried to cut down the tree, to no avail. Since then, it has stood in a remote section of a local park—left to its own devices—quiet in its eerie repose—until now! Psychological-thriller author Keith Rommel has imagined the whole tale anew. He’s brought the tree to life and retold the tale with gory detail only possible in fiction. Action-packed, with spine-tingling detail, this thriller is beyond parallel in the revelations it uncovers . . . In the expert hands of Rommel, the explanation of what may have really been said—what may have really happened—under Port St. Lucie’s “Devil Tree” is chilling . . . “The Devil Tree blankets you in dread from the start and then proceeds to smother you.” —Jason Brant, author of The Hunger series “A gripping and terrifying tale with a razor sharp supernatural edge.” —Jack Campisi, co-host of the Monster Men horror video podcastVer libro

Enid Yandell (October 6, 1870 - June 13, 1934) was an American sculptor who studied with Auguste Rodin and Frederick William MacMonnies. She created numerous portraits, garden pieces and small works as well as public monuments. Ms. Yandell also studied in Paris and kept a studio there. This book, Three Girls in a Flat, is a semi-autobiographical account of her work as a sculptor for the Horticultural Building at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893. Co-written with two friends, it's an episodic account of the trials and tribulations of three young women eking out a living while sharing a small flat in Chicago. The young ladies are called Virginia (or Gene), Marjorie and the Duke (a young sculptor -- certainly Ms. Yandell's character). Interspersed among the stories of their work days, social gatherings held in their flat, daily life in Chicago, interactions with their neighbors, and young male callers at various times, are descriptions of the work of the women involved with the Woman's Building at the Columbian Exposition. Part historical information and part personal events in the girl's lives, this is a light and enjoyable read. Or as the ladies state in their preface: "We beg to assure our readers that we do not consider this little book in any way a literary effort. It is a simple story which really wrote itself, and it is with great modesty and hesitation that we cast it upon the sea of public opinion." Summary by Wikipedia and Lee Ann Howlett.Ver libro
