Pay the piper  Cover Image Book Book

Pay the piper / George A. Romero, Daniel Kraus.

Romero, George A. (author.). Kraus, Daniel, 1975- (author.).

Summary:

In 2019, while sifting through the George A. Romero Archival Collection at the University of Pittsburgh's Library System, novelist Daniel Kraus turned up a surprise: a half-finished novel called Pay the Piper, a project few had ever heard of. In the years since, Kraus has worked with Romero's estate to bring this unfinished masterwork to light. Alligator Point, Louisiana, population 141. Young Ren©Øee Pontiac has heard stories of “the Piper”--a murderous swamp entity haunting the bayou--her entire life. But now the legend feels horrifically real: children are being taken and gruesomely slain. To resist, Pontiac and the town's desperate denizens will need to acknowledge the sins of their ancestors--the Pirates Lafitte. If they don't... it's time to pay the piper.
