"I do not know what you have done, but put your
mouth right here. Confess your crime to this fruit jar as though it
were God's ear." ~ from The Whisper Jar
Some secrets are kept in jars -- others, in books.
Some are left forgotten in musty rooms -- others, created in old barns.
Some are brought about by destiny -- others, born in blood.
Secrets
-- they are the hidden heart of this collection. In these pages, you
will encounter a Blood Digger who bonds two children irrevocably
together; a young woman who learns of her destiny through the random
selection of a Bible verse; and a boy whose life begins to reflect the
stories he reads...
"If you like dark, creepy stories with a
theme of secrets and dark characters, you're going to love this (I
did!). It's the perfect read for Halloween, and I can certainly
recommend it highly. I had a great time with all of these stories, and
it's no surprise to me that all these stories have won acclaim in their
own right."
Colin F. Barnes, author of Killing my Boss
"Every
now and then, a collection of short stories comes along that not only
brings creepiness to new levels, but reaches in a little deeper and
leaves something behind. The stories in The Whisper Jar are like
that...they stick with you like soft voices in the memory. A great book
for a dark and stormy night..."
David Niall Wilson, Award-winning author of Deep Blue, This is My Blood, and CEO of Crossroad Press
"Few
writers can make love seem so horrible, or horror seem so lovely. The
weird scenes Lanham paints for us are poignant and final, with hope
strangled - but always in some strangely uplifting way. Perhaps gruesome
and memorable are the best words to describe her work."
Dr. Kim Paffenroth, author of Dying to Live and Gospel of the Living Dead
