BLACKWATER LIGHTS

Book ID/图书代码: 06510013B63230

English Summary/英文概要: Michael M. Hughes’s electric novel combines the eldritch horror of H. P. Lovecraft with the supernatural thrills of Dean Koontz.

When Ray Simon receives a desperate call from his childhood friend Kevin, begging him to come visit, Ray can’t say no. Kevin promises to clue him in on shocking discoveries he has made about weird, half-forgotten events in their past--events associated with a summer camp near Kevin’s home in the small town of Blackwater, West Virginia.

But when Ray arrives, Kevin is nowhere to be found. So Ray does some investigating of his own, only to find that no records exist of the camp. Yet he is not alone in looking for information. There is Lily—a beautiful redhead with uncanny seductive powers. Crawford, a wealthy collector of art and people. And Micah, the mysterious leader of the Church of the Open Door. All of them are seeking information about the rumored camp. And they are all interested--very interested--in Ray.

Then a midnight encounter with strange floating lights sparks a return of old memories--vivid but fractured images that haunt Ray’s waking hours with intimations of terror and cruelty. Something dreadful happened at that camp long ago. Something was awakened there. Now, with the help of his new friend Ellen, a waitress at the local diner, Ray must navigate a path through madness and murder--a path that leads inexorably to an all-but-forgotten night in his childhood . . . and to a future of unimaginable horror.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 迈克尔•M 休斯的《黑水灯塔》集H.P洛夫的恐怖气氛,和迪恩•孔茨的超自然惊悚元素。
当雷•西蒙接到一个儿时玩伴凯文的求救电话时,雷没有丝毫的犹豫,便只身前往朋友那里了。凯文向他发誓将会看到最为怪异的发现。他们曾一度遗忘的事件 – 与凯文的家乡维吉尼亚州西部的小镇黑水镇附件的夏令营有关。
但当雷到达时,凯文已经身无踪影。雷只得一人独自开始调查,却在儿时的夏令营旧址上没有发现任何线索。而此时并不只有他一人在探寻线索。在那里,一位有着神秘魅力的红发女子莉莉;一位喜好收藏艺术和人的富人,克劳福德;还有教会和主张开放主义的神秘领导人迈卡。他们都在风传的营地附近寻找线索。而他们似乎都对雷有着浓厚的兴趣。
随即在半夜所看到的一个奇异的浮标灯光,又让他回到了以前的记忆之中 — 这些生动但却支离破碎的印象,唤醒了雷那些曾经恐怖和残忍的真是记忆。那些曾在营地所发生过的可怕事情,有一些却似如梦初醒般地印记。现在,在他的新朋友,一位在当地饭馆就职的女服务员,艾伦的帮助下,雷必须勇敢地去直面那些曾经的疯狂与谋杀 — 那曾一度被抛却脑后的儿时可怕记忆…… 和那无法想象的恐怖未来。(Sandy)
