About Better Men Elsewhere
From the publisher's feed
A convict is sentenced to the strange town of Coventry, where mysterious occurrences and political strife make his sentence more dangerous than he ever could have imagined.
Better Men Elsewhere is an American thriller with a dash of the supernatural, magical realism, and rural fantasy. Follow Jason Miranda, a prisoner sentenced to the mysterious mountain town of Coventry for 10 years for his crimes. While the townsfolk must cope with a convicted criminal in their midst as part of this unconventional arrangement, Jason must also have his wits about him as he traverses a corner of the world filled with invisible citizens, scandals, and dark family histories.
