Harley Creed is a bad man. He used to be worse. A violent ex-con with a string of brutal crimes in his past, he only wanted one thing when he finally walked free from prison: to leave Briar Falls, WV, behind and disappear forever. But Harley’s hometown has a strange way of swallowing people whole—call it a consequence of the low-level folk magic that has permeated its darker corners for generations. And now that Harley has returned, pent-up vengeance for his past crimes is about to come roaring back. Somebody has put a hex on him—and Harley has seven days before he dies in twisted, screaming agony.
To reverse it, Harley must find and kill his unseen enemy before their curse can reap its terrible end. But in Briar Falls, there’s no shortage of suspects—and Harley is coming for them all. If can’t have peace, at least he can have revenge.
“Sad old men, revenge, witchcraft and Appalachian folk magic – just know I’ll be drawing all of this with a smile on my face the entire time,” said series artist Chris Shehan.
“I don’t get an opportunity to do as much crime as I want…” said author Justin Jordan. “Wait, no, I mean I don’t get a chance to do as much crime FICTION as I would like, so getting to do a crime book that is also a horror book, my other favorite genre, has been awesome. And getting to set it in Appalachia, where I’m from, is just icing on the very brutal cake.”
Mine is a Long Lonesome Grave #1 (of 4) arrives on February 12, 2025, with a cover price of $4.99.
