Halloween, 1963. They call him the October Boy, or Ol' Hacksaw
Face, or Sawtooth Jack. Whatever the name, everybody in this small
Midwestern town knows who he is. How he rises from the cornfields
every Halloween, a butcher knife in his hand, and makes his way
toward town, where gangs of teenage boys eagerly await their chance
to confront the legendary nightmare. Both the hunter and the
hunted, the October Boy is the prize in an annual rite of life and
death.
Pete McCormick knows that killing the October Boy is his one chance
to escape a dead-end future in this one-horse town. He's willing to
risk everything, including his life, to be a winner for once. But
before the night is over, Pete will look into the saw-toothed face
of horror--and discover the terrifying true secret of the October
Boy . . .
Winner of the Stoker Award and named one of the 100 Best Novels of
2006 by "Publishers Weekly," "Dark Harvest" is a powerhouse
thrill-ride with all the resonance of Shirley Jackson's "The
Lottery."
