Hard Luck Jenny: A Horror Novella

David Sodergren

“You should pay your respects to Jenny.” On a quiet road in the Scottish Highlands, Dennis Norris stops to use the bathroom in a quaint country inn. It’s been a long weekend, and all he wants is to use the facilities before continuing the five-hour drive home to his loving wife. But something seems off in The Rockarn Inn. The people there won’t let him leave. Why is everyone so hostile towards him? What strange ritual has Dennis accidentally stumbled into? And just who is the mysterious Hard Luck Jenny everyone keeps talking about? Soon, Dennis will find out. And the grim events of that long, desperate night will change his life… forever. From David Sodergren, author of The Haar and Maggie’s Grave, comes a darkly comic anxiety-drenched folk-horror nightmare. Hard Luck Jenny. Love her. Worship her. Die for her.
