Displacement

In this Shirley Jackson Award-nominated novella, a young man taps the modern day anxieties about serial killers and so becomes a serial killer in order to avenge his own murder. " A] tale that takes several unexpected and delicious turns, somehow combining a Poe-like belligerence and a Clive Barker-like vividness" (Daniel Kraus, Booklist).

This tale comes from Stories from the Plague Years, the debut short fiction collection of International Horror Guild Award- and Bram Stoker Award-winner Michael Marano.
