Greg Howard Knihy

    Greg Howard čerpá inšpiráciu z tajomnej atmosféry pobrežia Južnej Karolíny, kde vyrastal a ktoré s láskou nazýva „podpazuším amerického Juhu“. Jeho diela sú presiaknuté predstavivosťou, ktorá sa živí gotickou históriou jeho rodného mesta Georgetown, známeho ako „Veľrybie kapitál Juhu“. Howard sa vymanil z prísnej náboženskej výchovy prostredníctvom umenia, ako je hudba a písanie príbehov, a táto inšpirácia sa odráža v jeho literárnom štýle. Po presídlení do Nashvillu si Howard vybudoval kariéru v hudobnom priemysle, ale jeho srdce stále patrí Juhu, kam sa pravidelne vracia a kde sníva o návrate ako spisovateľ na plný úväzok.

      A lonely twelve-year-old boy spends his days “stuck” at the deserted Hollow Pines Plantation in Georgetown, South Carolina with no recollection of his name, how long he’s been there, and no idea how to leave. Things never change much for the lost souls at Hollow Pines and time is strange when you’re dead. But when visitors from the living world arrive for the first time in a long while, the boy feels a spark of hope. These visitors are around his age, and they seem to understand more than others that the plantation is not just spooky or eerie, it’s a sad place where the unspeakable happened again and again. And if these kids could understand the truth about Hollow Pines, maybe they could help him uncover the dark secrets of his past and help him find a way to finally move on. But Hollow Pines doesn’t like visitors. And with a malevolent spirit lurking in the shadows and painful memories buried deep, and for good reason, the boy wonders if he’ll ever find his way home or be stuck at Hollow Pines forever.
