Patient 444 And Other Short Stories

About the Book

On a Sunday morning in 1910, Gerald Dury rose up and exacted his revenge on the town of Bradley Kansas. His revenge was complete, devastating, and intractable. Patient 444 is a collection of stories by J. M. Lamoreux, written in a powerfully mystical way, lifting his work out of the mainstream, and placing in in a category of magic reality, unique in the horror genre. Patient 444 includes stories about an unseen pet that guards a shed and finds its life in the twisted heart of an old man, a haunted gym that is guarded by a lonesome ghost that embodies a world of sadness and, when provoked, animal rage, a ghostly encounter in Donner Memorial Park by a drug dealer attacked by an invisible pack of wild animals, the revenge of a woman murdered in a mall bathroom, the resurrection of a murdered wife in a Water Master’s House in the Sierras, and more . . . much more.
