How is it that the bountiful plains of the American heartland could become the playing fields of vampires whose life (or un-life) is extended by draining the lives and blood of others? Is there something in the solid citizens who people the nation's heartlands that escapes our notice? After reading these tales of horror that embody the fear lying just below the surface of our consciousness, one can only wonder. All of the stories in Fields of Blood are set in the vast American Midwest, those states from Ohio to Kansas, from Missouri to North Dakota. They include: *"Undercover," Nancy Holder *"The Time of the Bleeding Pumpkins," A. R. Morlan *"Masquerade," Henry Kuttner *"There Will Always Be Meat," Jennifer Stevenson *"Plague," John Lutz *"Too Short a Death," Peter Crowther *"Purr of a Cat," Hugh B. Cave *"Death on the Mississippi," Wendi Lee and Terry Beatty *"A 12-Step Program (for the Corporeally Challenged)," Tina L. Jens *"A Night at the (Horse) Opera," P. N. Elrod *"Harvest Moon," Mark A. Garland *"The Tenacity of the Dead," John Helfers
