Publisher's Synopsis
Thirteen short stories, like a hangman's noose would have thirteen twists. A hiker on the Appalachian Trail disappears; a basketball coach is desperate for a win; an old love may be renewed; a veteran's memory may help overcome his fear; an obsession leads to murder; a golfer challenges skill vs. luck; a fisherman matches wits with the game warden; Howard may have been successful in more than business; Jed insists he's not really a loser; George tries to exorcise his ghost; an old timer relates a story of a hanging; and more.
