THE CLOCK STRIKES TWELVE, tales of ghosts and the macabre by H. Russell Wakefield. What makes this so special is that for a measley buck fifty (Goodwill had a 50% off sale today) I snagged the 1946 Arkham hardback with a creepy dust jacket by Ronald Clyne. Put a sheen on my Black Friday outing. (I'd post the cover but my printer pooped out.)

My Zombie Dog (Zane and Kev versus Everything), by Charmaine Clancy. Looks like fun for the kiddies, but I have to read the first few chapters first.

Control by Ed Kurtz
Leon Weissmann is an introverted loner with no control over his life. His only joy is the menagerie of insects, spiders, and scorpions he tends to in his garage. When he acquires an illegally poached rainforest spider, he unknowingly contracts a rare strain of fungus that enables him to control people, to make them do anything he wants. As his power grows, Leon begins to abuse it until there are bodies in his wake and a coterie of brainwashed disciples under his influence. But soon Leon suspects that the thing growing inside his head may be the one with the power… It wants to come out. To reproduce. It wants to control everyone. I think the cover is some what creepy.

The Coyote by Michael McBride
Arizona shares nearly four hundred miles of international border with Mexico, thirty-six of which are completely unfortified. On one side lies desperation; on the other, opportunity. There’s no record of their destinations. Tens of thousands of undocumented aliens pass through these thirty-six miles every year, only to find one of the harshest and most inhospitable deserts on the planet waiting for them. No one knows where to look when they disappear. Hundreds die walking, casualties of the merciless sun, their bodies never to be identified. Others simply set out across the red Sonoran sands and vanish into thin air. It’s as though they never existed at all. Special Agent Lukas Walker is assigned to investigate a murder, the only evidence of which is a twenty-foot design painted on a rock formation in the victim’s blood. He quickly learns that if the heat doesn’t get you… The Coyote will.
