Monsters in the Mills

Monsters in the Mills
$9.52Edited by acclaimed author/editors, Christa Carmen and L. E. Daniels, Monsters in the Mills presents the short fiction of eighteen authors and two poets with an introduction by professor emeritus, Dr. Faye Ringel.
In this showcase, past and present converge like the towering granite structures themselves against a bleak New England skyline. History weeps from the foundations, etched by the unethical practices and insatiable overseers of nineteenth and twentieth century industrialization. Visions span the legend of Dollie Cole to the snowy forest of the Ardennes in 1944, when soldiers relied on the production of these mills. From the exploitation of child labor to the atmosphere of powder-keg and carcinogenic sweatshops, not even the finest renovations can disperse these ghosts. Like many tales of horror rising up from New England, Monsters in the Mills suggest that when abandoned mills beckon, it’s best to pretend you didn’t hear them calling your name.
