The Deep End & To Watch by Night Paperback - 2012

From the publisher

Armchair Fiction presents extra large editions of classic science fiction double novels. The first novel is a Lovecraftian-style science fantasy, "The Deep End" by Armchair Fiction editor, Gregory Luce. There were monsters in the watery depths. It was a summer day, 1965. On the surface everything seemed normal. A nice family pool on a hot day with dozens of children and adults splashing about.

A number of kids had drowned in the pond years before and now strange things were happening in the pool. It all started coming to a head when a young boy was pulled from the pool in hysterics.

It was odd that a big city newspaper like the Chicago Globe would send out two of its best reporters to investigate a hen house slaughter and the mysterious appearance of a naked man in a farmer's field. Nevertheless, Don Reed and Nita Ayer were sent packing to the wilds of Wisconsin to cover the story. Upon their arrival they found a farmer who was hesitant to talk--seemingly afraid of someone or some thing. Then at the local jail there was the strange 19-year old who couldn't even speak English, who didn't have a stitch of clothing to his name, who seemed to want to stay in jail. But when the youth turned up dead, the story took a horrifying turn into the unknown. Soon, out of the darkness of the night came an unbelievable man with a crystal; and out of that same darkness came a terrifying power...
