"ALTAR is redolent of hard-edged supernatural horror from the golden days of McCammon and King..." -- <b>Laird Barron</b>, author of <i>X's for Eyes</i><br /><br />The nostalgia of a child's summer afternoon can be intoxicating. Tinkling ice cream trucks, games in the yard, young love, swimming pools. For one young boy and his family, days like these can be heaven. <br /><br />Dream-like.<br /><br />Like any dream, however, things can change. Heavens can fall into darkness, games turn deadly, love become hate. And the seemingly safest places of our world - filled with that sweet, sky-blue nostalgia - can curdle and implode, tearing the dream, and those caught inside it, to shreds.
