Publications by Author Thomas D. Clagett
It will haunt you long after the flame goes out
“Thomas Clagett weaves a spell of atmosphere and language that brings the reader to the dark shadows of imagination. By combining period adventure with the supernatural, Clagett’s haunting imagery evokes the best of Henry James and Nathaniel Hawthorne, while creating characters and a world that is completely, and distinctly, his own. ‘The River Ghost’ is a work to be read by candlelight – and it will haunt you long after the flame goes out.”
C. Courtney Joyner, award-wining author, screenwriter and film historian
