Written in 1990 but never before published, Snowman is a haunting, intimate novel of belief, loss, and the quiet strangeness of Midwestern landscapes-both external and internal. A gruesome tragedy in a past Nebraska winter draws together an unlikely group of strangers to face, years later, the terrifying consequences.What begins as a brutal slasher spirals into something far darker when the survivors turn to a circle of witches to confront the relentless supernatural threat. Their last refuge is a rural covenstead-an isolated sanctuary already bedeviled by suspicious and hostile local law enforcement.Part occult Americana, part homespun camp, Snowman leans into the eerie charm of B-movie storytelling with a straight face and a wink-complete with requisite gore, possession, and rituals teeming with tension. But beneath the séances and snowdrifts, it's about myth, found family, and the kind of magic that refuses to stay buried-no matter how frozen the ground gets. And in the cold, something hungry waits: watching, whispering, and pulling the past back up through the cracks.Rediscovered after more than three decades, Snowman reads like a time capsule cracked open-its contents strange, tender, and eerily resonant in today's world.
