“The Gloaming Hour,” is based on a piece of family lore in which my atheist great-great-grandfather told his family that if there was anything on the other side of death, he would be sure to let them know somehow. After he died, his cuckoo clock stopped working, and no one could figure out why, because there was nothing wrong with it. That family legend was the seed. I changed things around and horrified them up a bit. Read for yourself when No Rest for the Wicked is released later this month as a paperback and Kindle edition ebook.
