This lush, beautifully rendered graphic novel is guaranteed to keep you glued to the page.  Miles Hyman's adaptation of Shirley Jackson's classic short story packs an entire small town's worth of tension and detail into 135 slim pages.  All is not as it seems in the American heartland, and the reader will encounter more than they bargained for.
