Dead Politician, An Undead Clam, And An Ancient Horror

Corruption, Creatures, and Clams
"If you listen carefully, as you wander the darkened streets of Providence late at night, perhaps you will hear a sound…"
Home to H.P. Lovecraft and haunted by Edgar Allen Poe, Rhode Island has long been a nexus of horror.

What lurks under the streets of Providence? What is swimming up Narragansett Bay? What do you do with the corpse of a bloated city councilor?
In this collection, award-winning author and storyteller Mark Binder shares tales of horrific history, pernicious politics and fatal food. Limited edition volume of three stories: The Vampire Clams of Narragansett Bay, Old Scratch Nickels, The Old One.
