Excerpt
Raymond wasn't sorry most of the other men had drowned. He was only sorry that Manuel hadn't gone to the bottom of the Pacific with them. The Mexican, or Puerto Rican, or whatever the hell he was, sat across from Raymond in the yellow inflatable raft, his hairy brown arms thrown out, resting on the sides of the raft, his legs spread before him. Manuel was probably in his late forties and was always grinning -- a mean grin that split his raggedly-bearded face and showed off his perfect, gleaming teeth.
The fortunate inherit riches, prestige, positive notoriety. Those not so lucky bear legacies filled with poverty, infamy or, worse yet, the unhinged insanity and murderous urges of their ancestors.
WEIRD RHODY is a short story collection featuring five strange tales all set in Rhode Island and written by five Rhode Island authors. The anthology is a tribute to H.P. Lovecraft, the Ocean State's famed author of pulp horror.
