The Night Before Krampus
Written by Peter Johnson
Publisher’s Synopsis: It’s two days before Christmas and a quiet Rhode Island town is about to be visited by a number of unexpected guests—including a pair of very different Krampuses. Are they there to protect the innocent, or to exact revenge for a long-forgotten tragedy? Some curses fade over time, while others grow stronger. In this homage to Dickens’s A Christmas Carol, a young boy named Christoph and his friends must find some way to atone for a wrong committed a generation before they were born.
Ages 12+ | Publisher: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform | 2017 | ISBN-13: 978-1977765178
