Description
Book 4 in the Legacy of the Corridor publication series.
Like sharks exiled to an inland sea, here you'll explore sideways worlds where things are not always what they seem. You'll rise with a mom who won't stay in her grave, cower at the might of a poi dog fairy godmother, and panic at the thought of your bones enshrined in a national monument. You'll swim in dubious waters, walk with sharks, talk with ghosts, and wonder what it means to be a modern Hawaiian living in the high rocky mountains.
Lehua Parker is a master of tension, voice, and authenticity. Writing from her Hawaiian and Utah Pioneer roots, her award-winning fiction, essays, and memoir effortlessly blend elements of horror, magical realism, and romance-all liberally sprinkled with her unique sense of humor. These stories thrill, chill, and warm the heart as they explore what it means to be fundamentally human. Or otherwise.
