The Valley of American Shadow is a collection of 16 paranormal, supernatural short stories spanning across America, reaching past ordinary and into the unexpected with characters so real you feel for them, even the social media troll who has the tables turned by a ghost. Whether it's a dystopian K-8 school in rurl Kansas with a terrible secret, or a 10-year-old in Greeley, Colorado, that suspends a damaged airplane in midair, these stories blur the line between reality and het metaphysical. The characters are thrust into situations that challenge both explanation and understanding, at least in this plane of existence. What happens when a dissoloving UFO attacks a religious commune in a dusty Texas county near the US-Mexican border? Or when an Ohio police officer on his first night of patrol has the devil in the back seat of his cruiser?
