Saliva, Sunburn, and the Scum of the Earth

By Mike Zimmerman

Travis is a simple guy who escapes to the beach and the boardwalk for the summer -- and maybe forever. No one will know him there. His past, and his secret, will remain just that. It should be the perfect place for him, and for a time, it is. He finds a job, a place to live, and Carly, perhaps the most beautiful girl he's ever met.

Soon, however, the summer sun and the teeming masses of humanity on the boardwalk trigger something deep inside Travis. And when his secrets boil to the surface, no one around him is safe.

This short story received honorable mention in The Year's Best Fantsay and Horror anthology series.

BONUS! Includes an exclusive sneak preview of Mike Zimmerman's acclaimed crime novel, WHERE THE SUN DON'T SHINE.
