More details!

- Literary horror? Upmarket speculative?
- 60,000 words
- Grumpy MC with a heart of gold
- Dark with restorative undertones and a hopeful ending (to me anyways)
- Echoes of TJ Klune and Haruki Murakami. Some Twin Peaks too!

Btw, I #amquerying for my first novel

For Old Time’s Sake follows Buck, a lonely drifter who must return to his hometown after his sister is suddenly killed by a mountain lion. There, he faces a host of bad memories — and ghostly animals that speak, but only in cryptic terms.
