The Bone Tree

(2011)
A Story by

 
 
Above a Civil War graveyard in the rural backwoods of Texas, Kevin and Bobby's treehouse was their haven against the world. But the day Tom Plecker came screaming through the creek below, terrified of a shadow man, that all changed. Walking Tom home, they saw it for the first time - the tree, its branches twisted like the pain-wracked frame of a fleshless corpse, knotty snarls of bone-white wood clawing the sky.

The Bone Tree is more than a stark, twisted visage. It's alive, and it's gaining power. When the shadow men come to call on the boys, they must fight a supernatural force they barely understand, or fall victim to the apparitions and learn what it means to disappear...

Praise for THE BONE TREE:

"THE BONE TREE will take you back to those childhood moments when the shadows in the night were paralyzingly real...and the veil between here and the abyss of hell frighteningly thin." - John Everson, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of SIREN

"Fulbright's prose is every bit as sharp as America's great pulp writers, yet there's a humanity and a depth to his characters that has, on several occasions, left me slack-jawed in amazement. Fulbright is tough, passionate, and capable of scaring you like you haven't been scared since childhood." - Joe McKinney, author of DEAD CITY and APOCALYPSE OF THE DEAD

"A heartbreaking coming-of-age story that works on every level...this one will stay with you." - Nate Kenyon, award-winning author of THE REACH and SPARROW ROCK
