Those across the river

"Haunted by memories of the Great War, failed academic Frank Nichols and his wife have arrived in the sleepy Georgia town of Whitbrow, where Frank hopes to write a history of his family's old estate -- the Savoyard Plantation -- and the horrors that occurred there. At first their new life seems to be everything they wanted. But under the facade of summer socials and small town charm, there is an unspoken dread that the townsfolk have lived with for generations. A presence that demands sacrifice. It comes from the shadowy woods across the river, where the ruins of the Savoyard Plantation still stand. Where a long smoldering dept of blood has never been forgotten. Where it has been waiting for Frank Nichols..." --P. [4] of cover.

  • "Sie glaubten sich in Sicherheit. Doch der Fluch kehrt zurück ... Amerika in den frühen Dreissigerjahren: Der mittellose Akademiker Frank Nichols zieht mit seiner Frau nach Georgia, in das kleine Städtchen Whitbrow. Er will die Chronik der Savoyard Plantage schreiben, des Wohnsitzes seiner Vorfahren, doch in Whitbrow schlagen ihm nur Furcht und Misstrauen entgegen. Und je mehr Nichols nachbohrt, umso verängstigter reagieren die Einheimischen. Denn etwas hat von der Plantage jenseits des Flusses Besitz ergriffen. Eine dunkle Präsenz, die ihre grausigen Opfer fordert ... Christopher Buehlman hat französische Literatur und Geschichte studiert und ist einige Jahre mit einer eigenen Bühnenshow durch die USA getourt. Er wurde 2007 mit dem Bridport Prize for Poetry ausgezeichnet. Nacht über dem Fluss ist sein erster Roman. Christopher Buehlman lebt und arbeitet in Florida."
