Official synopsis Publisher
- Be careful what you wish for. Young men in search of adventure… explorers driven to investigate the ends of the earth… a girl trying to find the perfect hiding place… a curiosity-seeker drawn to an abandoned amusement park. All of them are looking for something — and unfortunately, they usually find it. For the very unlucky, it sometimes finds them!
- In these ten spellbinding stories by World Fantasy Award winner Barbara Roden, very little is as innocent as it seems; but much is haunting, enigmatic, and terrifying. Where the Twilight Zone ends, the Northwest Passages begin.
