Where The Road Parts: Small Town Monsters, Volume I

The road still bends around the grave.In rural Johnson County, Indiana, an old burial plot stands in the middle of a county road, forcing the living to go around the dead. Most locals treat it as a curiosity-an odd piece of history left in place too long to question.Mary Kelley knows it was never about sentiment.When the county moves to survey the site and straighten the road, Mary realizes the old bargain her family has guarded for generations is in danger of being broken. The archaeologist called in to assess the grave expects a routine dispute over local history. Instead, she uncovers buried records, older graves, and a story the town has spent a century making smaller, safer, and easier to live with.Because the grave was never just a grave.Where the Road Parts is an atmospheric work of folk horror about land, inheritance, and the dangerous truths communities bury beneath their legends.
