description: David Binder is a young successful writer living in Chicago and suffering from writers block. He stares at the blank page and the blank page stares backuntil inspiration strikes in the form of a ghost story that captivated him as a child.With his pregnant wife and young daughter in tow he sets out to explore the myth of Virginia Beale Faery Queen of the Haunted Dell. But as his investigation takes him deeper and deeper into the legacy of blood and violence that casts its shadow over the old Beale farm Binder finds himself obsessed with a force thats as wicked as it is seductive.A stirring literary rendition of Tennessees famed Curse of the Bell Witch Little Sister Death skillfully toes the line between Southern Gothic and horror and further cements William Gays legacy as not only one of the Souths finest writers but among the best that American literature has to offer.
