Mystery Walk - Robert Mccammon

The latest addition to Pocket's McCammon backlist once again demonstrates his multi-faceted talent in this impressive performance (Associated Press) which tells of a murdered family, a world of innocence and a world of evil, and of two boys born to a dangerous legacy to walk with the dead. \nFrom the New York Times bestselling author of Gone South and PBS Great American Read nominee Swan Song comes as finely a turned tale of horror as the best of them (Houston Chronicle) about two young men with astonishing psychic gifts who encounter a nightmarish enemy. \nOne talks to the dead. The other heals the living. Both must make the Mystery Walk... \n \nFrom deep within the empty house of a murdered family, Billy Creekmore hears his name whispered...and is drawn inside. At a revival meeting in Alabama, Wayne Falconer demonstrates his miraculous healing powers...while demons feast and grow in his soul. \n \nOn separate journeys through the Deep South to Chicago, from a world of innocence to a world of evil, greed, and lust, the two young men discover their manhood--and fuel a deadly rivalry. On a scorched slab of desert they will meet in fear and unite their extraordinary powers against a raging, unshackled spirit--the walking, hungry corpse of the Shape Changer.\n
