Beneath the Hyde
Despite the cold, and the smell, and the hearty footsteps overhead—any number of men who might have been close enough to hear their cries—the boys never dared a sound.

From the Author
I have always believed in vampires. Well—not literally. But there was a time I wanted them to be real. When I was in junior high, I’ll never forget one particular night visiting Austin. Near the seminary by UT campus there is a little park, and in the park a concrete foot bridge, where the creek beneath went through a broad manmade tunnel.
