86

Every few weeks or so now, the Davenport Crew gather together again to talk and hangout, like they did when they were growing up in the blue-collar Southern town of Millport in the mid-eighties. But all of that feels like a memory from a lifetime ago.The year is 1986 and things are quite different for the boys. They're teenagers again and life is beautiful and crisp like a pristine summer day. One day after school has let out, they go fishing under the bridge on their street, but there comes a meeting of great proportions when a dark stranger driving a mystic grey car stops by and alters the course of all their lives. The horror is something they'll have to face up close and personal. Like Mike relates in the story, "Some things you can't just 86 from memory. You've got to deal with it until the end of the road." Now complete with the addition of a new short story, "The Rider", a brief but maddening glimpse into the highwayman's life on the road, a dark delight with violent ends, and the true epilogue of 86.
