Michael Wehunt Books in Order

Across small towns, forests and private rooms, familiar lives are unsettled by forces that resist explanation. Wehunt’s stories explore grief and desire through strange encounters, including a found-footage nightmare and a dark tale shaped by jazz.

Ten stories follow people whose private longings become entangled with unsettling forces. Childhood games, a found-footage project and a changing near-future world open cracks between ordinary experience and terrors waiting just beyond perception.

Years after a horror-film location visit ended in scandal and death, Jorie lives quietly with her young son. An unexpected videotape pulls her toward the reclusive director’s disturbing new project, where she may be the intended final victim.

Photographs arrive showing Luke beside murder victims he cannot remember, reviving fears about his serial-killer father. As new killings point toward him, he searches the Appalachians for a hidden legacy that threatens his former wife and daughter.
