Ruby is on the run, but the black eyed children haven't forgotten her... Battered and wheelchair bound, Ruby has now found refuge in a dingy apartment building. Her brain is wracked by nightmares and an all-consuming sense of paranoia. The days are marked by a simple routine of eating, taking pain medication, finishing rudimentary tasks at her day job, and most importantly, to not let them in. Yet the demonic children with their pool-black eyes have not forgotten her. They are determined to break down every ounce of sanity until nothing remains. The evil children want Ruby. And they won't rest until they finally possess her. Thunderous storms beat relentlessly against the building's windows, and a newly gruesome monster suddenly appears. Its wide, grinning teeth and bloody smile haunt Ruby's every waking hour ... or is this new abomination a figment of her increasingly fragile imagination? With their eerily child-like voices calling out to her, and the grisly creature playing mind-games, Ruby must find a way to banish these horrific fiends once and for all. At her wits end, and physically broken, she will have to keep the children out of her house, and out of her head. But they are terribly relentless. And all they really want is to come in...

If Marigold can't save her own soul, she'll be the first in a sea of victims. Marigold La Roux finds herself trapped with the raging demon locked inside her own skin. As it hunts down the last shards of her soul, Marigold is flung from one twisted reality to the next. Lost in a maze of madness and memories, Marigold needs to reclaim her body before it's too late. While Ma is willing to sacrifice Marigold to save millions, Louis isn't ready to give up just yet. Led by a ghost that's keen on destruction, Louis travels to the notorious La Roux plantation, a place forever scared by the evil birthed within it. But not everyone is eager to bring the origins of the family curse to light. With Louis inside, sinister forces plot to never let him leave the plantation ... in body or soul. Past and present collide as Marigold and the demon battle for control. Old ghosts rise, ancient powers claw their way into the waking world, and forgotten horrors carve new paths of destruction. Hell is opening and it's looking for a soul to take.

Ghost Logic showcases Sara Clancy's distinctive poetry. These are poems that reflect an unerring vision in an unmistakable voice. As in Prayer Wheel "an estuary where logic meets optimism" ... "in sheer, cussed determination." or in At Home with the Dead "...our old debate that yesterday is not gone and matters." Clancy's language is both complex and accessible: a feast for mind and ear. - Joan Colby, The Seven Heavenly Virtues... this chapbook allows entry into a way of seeing and experiencing the world we are a part of in a way that few of us ever have a chance at, but once we have been touched by the mind that wrote these poems we will never be able to see the world the same way again. - Jared Smith, from the Introduction
