Surf Mystic: Dark of the Curl (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798985970227)

Welcome back to the eternal haunted summer of Laguna Beach.

The Surf Mystic series continues in this harrowing adventure. Frannie Cohn, the four-foot-ten queen of the waves and the mystic arts, returns to Laguna Beach in 1959. But between her surfer maybe-boyfriend and a broodingly handsome newcomer with a dark secret, Frannie has plenty of trouble on her hands. But when an army of murderous, bewitched wooden men begins stalking the beach, Frannie's summer gets deadly fast.

Praise for Surf Mystic: Night of the Book Man
Not what you're expecting-- not by a longshot. -- Tom Waltz, writer of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

What can I say about Night of the Book Man? It's a delicious retro treat wrapped into a perfectly crafted horror novel! I wasn't sure what to expect when I started the book. Horror? Coming of age? Romance? A nod to the 60s? A creepy demon made of origami cranes? A terrifying witch? Yes to all of that and more. Peyton Douglas has knocked it out of the park in this story. From the first word until the more than satisfying end, I savored the book. If you are looking for a multilayered book that will keep you up late into the night turning pages, Surf Mystic is what you need in your life!
-- P.J. Hoover, award-winning Lone Star List author of Homer's Excellent Adventure

"Night of the Book Man is the perfect summer read for any fan of genre fiction. An atmospheric romp of horror in a distinct, vibrant setting where wondrous, kitschy and terrifying things take hold with equal aplomb. Whether crafting dread or compiling a Golem, this novel adds up to a delightful, spooky blend featuring intriguing, dimensional characters you can't help but root for. It's the summer blockbuster drive-in movie for your mind!"
- - Leanna Renee Hieber, award-winning, bestselling author of the Strangely Beautiful and Spectral City series

"What if Richard Matheson had penned a Gidget movie in collaboration with William Peter Blatty, directed by Dan Curtis for Hammer Film Productions? In these pages, Peyton Douglas has captured precisely that sun-drenched yet spooky dread. A pitch-perfect horror homage to 60s beach culture... blends surfing, soapy small-town politics, Kabbalah, and destructive demons in a page-turning alchemy that will transform your summer days. Come on in-the waves are epic!"
