The Girl on the Glider

by Brian Keene

Overview

Considered by many critics to be one of Brian Keene's best works, The Girl on the Glider has been long out of print – until now!

The year is 2009, and the world's financial and publishing sectors are in chaos. In the midst of this disarray, a burned-out horror writer finds himself haunted by a variety of ghosts, both real and metaphorical. And as the ghosts increase their attacks, his struggle to make a living quickly becomes a fight to hold on to his family – and his very sanity.

This meta-fictional take on the traditional, old-fashioned ghost story is a deft mix of M.R. James and Hunter S. Thompson, and makes for one of Keene's most personal and powerful novellas.

First time in digital. Includes a brand-new Afterword by the author.
