The Ghost Mine book - Flame Tree Publishing

“Shea instills an increasing sense of fear with the skills of a master craftsman, with several excellent tension-building scenes…” – Ginger Nuts of Horror

First time with full commercial distribution in all formats. Previously titled Hell Hole.

Deep in a Wyoming mine, hell awaits. Nat Blackburn receives an offer he can't refuse from President Teddy Roosevelt. Tales of gold in the abandoned mining town of Hecla abound. The only problem - those who seek their fortune never return. Accompanied by his inseparable companion, Teta, an adventure-hungry mercenary shooter, Nat travels to the barren land where even animals dare not tread. Black-eyed children, strange lights, and cruel wild men emerge from the deep, dark ghost mine... along with a sinister force hungry for fresh souls.
