The Spring Valley Saints are Dead and available at Smashwords.com for only 99 cents!When Andrew Ellison promises his dying father that he will stay put for his senior year at Spring Valley High School, he imagines his biggest challenge will be the tedium of small town life. But Andrew’s senior year is anything but routine.
Members of the high school football team are leftovers from the ’85 season, walking the halls like zombies in search of the state championship that eluded them. The kids in the drama club hide in the storeroom below the stage, and Andrew suspects they have very dark secrets. One of his closest friends vanishes in the shadows of the school basement after a failed senior prank, and another friend nearly dies in a freak car accident.
When Andrew starts dating Catherine Harris, the de facto ruler of the high school student body, he slowly wakes to the truth behind her terrible power. Spring Valley is full of the dead—shadows from the past that at times inhabit the bodies of the living—and Catherine knows how to manipulate these forces for her own, selfish purposes. But she needs Andrew, or others like him, to maintain her hold over the darkness that swirls about their sleepy, Kansas town. With the help of Ellen Lethe, an oddball classmate, Andrew may be able to keep his promise and escape Spring Valley with his life.
