Strange Alliance

"Strange Alliance" by Bryce Walton is a chilling exploration of psychological torment within a tightly-knit community. It follows Doctor Spechaug, a psychology professor, whose life takes a dark turn when he encounters Edith Bailey, a student who mirrors his own unsettling past, and strange violent actions. Both are haunted by a shared Hungarian heritage and a dark superstition that grips their small town. As they are hunted by fearful townspeople, their connection intensifies, forcing them to confront the violent and terrifying truths about themselves and their inherited nature, ultimately leading to a fraught and tragic revelation of identities.
