A corrupt undertaker facing a more-than-divine judgment. A fiddle made of flesh and bone that can only play the song of its creation. A man wakes up to find his doppelganger smiling at him. Mysterious old men who peer into the second-floor windows of sleeping children.
These and other mysterious events haunt the world of The Cousin of Death and Other Unexplainable Events, a book that finds horror in the folk tales of the deep past and in the all-too-immediate, chillingly possible present.
