Haunting Clues–In Print, In Audio, In Webzine

ghost

My short story Haunting Clues has been published at www.TheTownDrunk.org!

In The Town Drunk’s first detective story a private investigator is hired to expel a ghost from a mansion. To deal with the dead, though, he must disentangle the secret vices of the living.

 

 

Haunting Clues is also available in audio over at www.Clonepod.org!!! Leslie Ann Moore (author of Griffin’s Daughter) did a great job recording the story, using a few voices, accents and good pacing–definitely a giggle or three.

 

More excellent news! Haunting Clues has been accepted over at www.AnthologyBuilder.com. Haunting Clues will be included in the Anthology Builder database for purchase by anyone that wants a print copy. Readers that want to include the story in a “build-an-anthology” can select it as part of a hand-picked short-story book. I think this site has some great ideas, and I’m very excited to have my story available! Hop on over there and check it out!

Here’s a link to a built anthology that includes Haunting Clues: Escape

  1. Very good story! I like the corporate business/elves/supernatural triad conflict thing you got goin on there. I dont know if you read much supernatural detective fiction but there was a time when it was quite popular. William H. Hodgson’s Carnacki and Manly Wellman’s John Thunstone, Seabury Quinn’s Jules de Grandin,MP Sheil’s Cummings King Monk, and currently Wendy Webb as well. Anyway keep writing and I’ll look for more.

  2. Ernie,

    Thanks much for reading it and for taking the time to comment! It’s a thrill for me to have had the story published. Thanks also for the suggested reading. I haven’t read those, but I’m always on the lookout for good stories to read.

  4. I liked Haunting Clues. It was a very good story. My stomach was growling, but I didn’t want to move from my seat until I finished reading.
