The Land of Laughs by Jonathan Carroll EPUB

Thomas Abbey is a man stuck in a rut. An English teacher in a small Connecticut prep school, Abbey is in a crisis. His career is unfulfilling, he has no social or love life to speak of, and he cannot break out of the shadow of his famous father, the actor Stephen Abbey. To kick-start his life, he takes a sabbatical to work on a biography of his favorite writer, Marshall France. France\'s books were the only thing that kept Abbey sane during his childhood, and though he was renowned for his lyrical and imaginative children\'s books, nearly nothing was known about the writer\'s life.

Although Abbey has been warned that France\'s daughter, Anna, has blocked all previous attempts at her father\'s biography, he and Saxony Garder - an intense woman also obsessed with France\'s life - head to Galen, Missouri, with high hopes of breaking down Anna\'s resistance. They are surprised to find Anna the soul of small-town hospitality and quite excited about Abbey\'s proposal - even eager to get the project finished as soon as possible.

Even stranger than Anna\'s behavior is the town of Galen itself. On the surface, all is as a small Midwestern town should be. But the people of the town seem to know what their future holds - freak accidents and all - down to the hour and are as eager for Abbey to finish the biography as Anna is.
