About this ebook

Teddy Schoendienst is a brilliant but isolated teenager. He is bullied out of school because of his stutter and troubled by constant sexual fantasies, which he is certain will never become real. But one night he sees a lovely young girl walk out of his closet. Her name is Elena, and she promises to fulfill all his fantasies if he will promise never to tell his little familyhis father and his beloved sister, Ellenabout her. He quickly agrees, and she fulfills her end of the bargain with apparent enthusiasm. He falls in love and walks around his house all day, saying her name under his breath. But Ellen hears him and tells him that Elena is constantly appearing in her dreams too, forcing her to do disgusting things with boys. Teddy reassures her that such dreams are natural at her age, but he inwardly suspects that Elena is playing a double game with his family. But before he can confront her about this, Ellens decapitated corpse is found by the side of the river, which runs at the back of their house.

Teddy, an amateur detective, vows to discover the identities of not only the killer but also of his strange lover. He succeeds, but what he finds is so horrible that it threatens his sanity, his life, and even his soul.

Duncan Lloyd

More than 50 years ago, a fifteen year old named Duncan Lloyd joined a search for a teenage girl who had been abducted near his Wisconsin home. The girl was never found but shortly thereafter, a serial killer named Ed Gein was arrested in a nearby town. Gein, whose crimes were the source for the classic Alfred Hitchcock film "Psycho.", had used the bodies of dozens of female victims to make ashtrays, tables and other items. But in those days before DNA, police were only able to tie him to two murders where Gein had made masks of the victims' faces. He was suspected of killing the girl Duncan and others had searched for, but nothing could be proved. Duncan wrote his first short story about these events. He later moved to California, became a career civil servant and recently retired. But he never forgot Gein or the search for the girl Gein may have killed. He has now published his first novel, "Elena" based in part on his search for the girl, and partly on crimes resembling Gein's. But the horrors found in "Elena" differ from those in "Psycho" because they are all linked to a sinister Force, who torments her victims even beyond the grave. He lived over 40 years in Oakland CA with Diane, his wife of 49 years..He is currently working on a series of novels, of which "Elena" is the first.
