Where Stars Won't Shine by Patrick Lacey

It is a tense and sure story, draped in bloody shrouds and black arm bands. Author: Patrick Lacey Publisher: GRINDHOUSE Originally published in SCREAM MAGAZINE The stars won’t shine Marlowe, Massachusetts-the hometown of an infamous serial killer, Tucker Ashton. This book will do for parades what Duel did for rural road sharing with big rigs.

If the 'It's A Good Life' episode of The Twilight Zone and Henry: Portrait Of A Serial Killer procreated-this would be the slavering offspring. Where Stars Won't Shine is a darkly dreamy collage of images and emotions. Also on the same trajectory is an overzealous fan of all-things-serial-killer, dragging his less than enthused girlfriend to the hometown of his 'hero.' Throw in a young man on the run from the law and the return of a vile figure who may or may not be human and we have the nightmare quilt that is pulled over our heads and held in place while we squirm and holler. Īfter a few years, Tucker goes missing from his prison cell and a survivor of his earlier crimes is being called to his hometown. Tucker Ashton is a serial killer.and more than just a guy whose cheese was never very close to his cracker, a guy who went out and killed random folks and added the numbers-he did that stuff BUT he plopped a big ol' cherry on top of his carnage sundae by returning to his hometown and murdering it. It delivers enough creepiness and violence to satisfy the eagerest of horror fans. His most recent solo book, Where Stars Won't Shine is no exception. : Where Stars Won't Shine (9781941918364) by Lacey, Patrick and a great selection of similar New, Used and Collectible Books available now at great prices. It usually has a VHS tone to it.like something I'd have plotted to stay up way past my bedtime to sneak watch on pay cable. This kid knows his stuff in both areas and that knowledge comes through in his work. Now, when we usually talk obscure shitty horror films or deep heavy metal. Yes, I'm plugging it in a review for his book because the fact we both attend means that we both support the amazing good this organization does. We both attend what is honestly one of the best conventions/gatherings around, Scares That Care. I meet up with Patrick Lacey once a year.
