In "Black Angels," a young man takes his new girl Mercy to the cemetery for what his own ulterior motives, only to find some creatures waiting for him. “One Night in Rosecroft” tells of the dark doings of the various citizens of a small town somewhere in the midwest. In “The Disillusionist,” set many years ago, a failed magician visits various towns and wreaks havoc at each stop, until our hero confronts him, ears stuffed with wax and the truth at his side. “Painting Haiti” tells of a Haitian taxi driver living in Raleigh who can't outrun the demons of her homeland as well as her past. In “Never, Incorporated,” a nasty little fellow has a calling card he's like to leave for you. And finally, in “A Tale of Two Shits,” you get to visit a men's room at a rest stop next to the highway. You know you've always wanted to go there..
