The Scarecrow S Kiss

In 1980, serial killer Joseph Parrish was killed in a raid by local authorities and his bizarre world uncovered. Now, Russell Kenyon has come to do a segment on Parrish for his show, Spooky History, hoping the report will be his show's saving grace. With a new victim missing, talk of Parrish's curse has spread through town. Russ quickly finds himself involved in the case, finding the body bound and dissected in Parrish's fashion. Russ changes his direction, hoping to catch the killer for his show. He feels protected in the town where people vanish, feeling invited by the killer. Yet, he also feels watched. He is haunted by the scarecrow that guards Parrish's land. Russ finds few allies in town, working against the local sheriff and a town spooked by a legend. His attraction to the chief deputy, Jared Hatcher, a young man with eyes of an angel, takes him by surprise. It quickly becomes clear it's not a copycat killer. Russ must protect the ones he loves, the town he's grown fond of, and uncover the mystery of the deadly scarecrow's kiss before he finds himself suffering a fate worse than death.

A moving true life saga, spanning over forty years, from the poor neighbourhoods of the East End of London, to the affluent neighbourhoods of Croyded London in its times. As children, teenagers and adults, their love never ceased. They traveled different paths and crossed wide oceans and during these years never gave their love to anyone else, indeed they were true soul mates. She held onto a scrap of paper, he clung to a well faded black and white photograph and both had something that were identical that they were not aware of. How different their lives may have turned, if it had not have been for a very religious woman of strong convictions whom they both adored, a vindictive mother who did not know the meaning of the word, a young woman who married for all the wrong reason and a young man who did the same. The gamble that they took in the name of love. Hurting family members along the way and in return, they were persecuted for their actions by the very ones that claimed to love them. The emotional roller-coaster that ignored her finger on the stop button, another pain suffered with each plunge of the carriage, would it ever end she wondered? Her faith in God challenged every step of the way, asking Him if she really did deserve what was happening around her and why didn’t He hear her cries for help, what did she have to do to find a glimpse of happiness? From the days of laying under the pear tree to the day sitting in an empty room surrounded by boxes, she was convinced that God had turned His back on her and in a quiet moment she told God, “He had Won.”

When L. Frank Baum wrote The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, he created an American myth that has endured the test of time. Echoes of Dorothy and her friends are everywhere: popular television shows often have an Oz episode, novelists borrow character types and echo familiar scenes, and every media--from Broadway to The Muppets--has some variation or continuation of Baum's work. This collection of essays follows Baum's archetypal characters as they've changed over time in order to examine what those changes mean in relation to Oz, American culture and basic human truths. Essays also serve as a bridge between academia and fandom, with contributors representing a cross-section of Oz scholarship from backgrounds including The International Wizard of Oz Club and the Children's Literature Association.
