Walker, Bill Camp Stalag
USA Cemetary Dance Publications 2001 158767033X / 9781587670336 First Edition Private Press Hard Cover Fine Fine Signed by Author
421 pages. 'I never thought anyone could make being in a Luftwaffe Stalag appealing, but Bill Walker's ingenious page-turner has found a way.' --David Westheimer, Former POW: Stalag Luft III & Best-selling Author of Von Ryan's Express. When journalist and aspiring war novelist Frank Murphy returns from the 10th Annual World War Convention, he has no idea that the mysterious videotape he holds in his hands will change his life forever. He has been handpicked to participate in a specialized experiment in mass psychology and a unique form of Living History: 'Spend two weeks with three hundred other men in an authentic replica of a World War Two German POW Camp!' the tape says. 'Come, and experience the thrill of a lifetime!' For Frank it is the chance to research the book he has always wanted to write firsthand, a chance to relive a piece of history, a chance to feel closer to the heroic and beloved father he barely knew. Eager for adventure, Frank and his best friend, Dean Seger, leave their wives and families behind and plunge headlong into a time gone by. Everything about Camp Stalag is authentic: The buildings, the uniforms, the food, the guards, the weapons--the savage treatment. Soon Frank, Dean, and the others find their cherished fantasy turning into a nightmare. The Germans are playing for keeps, and no one may leave...ever. Camp Stalag, the monstrous creation of billionaire defense contractor Heinrich Koenig and his adopted son, Johann Schmidt, is Koenig's last hurrah--his final revenge for the humiliations of Germany's defeat and the death of his mother at the hands of marauding soldiers. Dying of brain cancer, he has secreted a weapon of terrifying power within the camp to insure that no one will interfere. Unaware of this danger, and desperate for freedom, Frank and his men try to escape the camp's brutality, personified by the greedy and sadistic Sergeant-of-the-Guard, Hans Mannheim. And everything's about to get worse.... Koenig's mental deterioration has left him believing the camp is real and the war still rages. He orders the compound expanded, tortures the prisoners for outdated military secrets, listens to the Fuhrer's speeches by the hour, and begins having nightmares from his past, nightmares that leave him dangerously disoriented. Now the prisoners' only hope lies with John Riley An ex-cop and private eye hired by Frank's wife, Brenda, Riley must find the camp, get inside, and help them shoot their way out before Koenig tires of the game....

Reviews: "The dedicated publisher of Cemetery Dance, the leading magazine in the horror field, assembles 20 original stories by writers old and new for this fourth incarnation of his dependable Shivers series. As with previous volumes, no single theme predominates, though many stories strive for the ambiguous supernaturalism of the Twilight Zone-school of writing. Randy Chandler's "The Spook" tells of a soldier whose discovery that Arab fighters are beings from hell may be a case of demonizing the enemy taken to a psychotic extreme. Al Sarrantonio offers a premonitory fantasy of horrors that lurk just up around the bend for a dysfunctional family on a stressful road trip in "The Man in the Other Car." Few of horror's traditional monsters are on display, though Stephen Mark Rainey's "LZ-116: Das Flegenschloss," about the beings that the Germans were actually targeting in their WWII bombing runs, comes closest." - Publishers Weekly

Walker, Bill TITANIC 2012
USA Cemetery Dance Publications 1998 1881475492 / 9781881475491 First Edition Private Press Hard Cover Fine Fine Signed by Author
232pp. Signed bookplate affixed to ffep, as issued. Best-selling mystery novelist Trevor Hughes has no idea that attending his twentieth reunion at Harvard will forever change his life. Persuaded to go by his on-again-off-again girlfriend, Dr. Julia Magnusson, he meets up with three old friends: Solly Rubens, a self-made Wall Street millionaire; Ken Faust, a successful software entrepreneur; and Harlan Astor, New York real estate tycoon and the glue that holds their circle together. That afternoon, over drinks at the Harvard Club, Harlan drops his bombshell: He is doing what James Cameron did not -- he is rebuilding the Titanic, and sailing the ship on the hundredth anniversary to honor those who died, including his great-grandfather, John Jacob Astor IV. Only Trevor is intrigued by Harlan's audacity. Touched by his friend's interest and concern, Harlan invites him on the maiden voyage to serve as the official chronicler. On April 10, 2012, Trevor journeys to Southampton and, along with the hundreds of handpicked passengers, boards the Titanic. He is awed by the immensity of the ship and the feelings that well up in him. His friend has made his grand dream a reality. During the journey, armed with his DVD recorder, Harlan interviews both passengers and crew, eager to learn the reasons why they chose to sail on the reborn ship. Nearly every one of them claims to have been profoundly affected by Cameron's film, wanting to recapture the magic for themselves. And some of them are dying -- their last wish to be on the maiden voyage of the new Titanic. Trevor is touched that his friend has allowed these people to come aboard, and is unprepared when he meets Madeleine Regehr, a beautiful, free-spirited woman who resists his entreaties to be interviewed, intriguing Trevor all the more. Slowly, and inexorably, Maddy draws him out of his shell, allowing him to love deeply and completely, for the very first time in his life. But Trevor soon discovers a darker purpose for the voyage, a purpose that threatens to destroy him and the woman he loves. In a race against time that pits friend against friend, Trevor must stop the unstoppable or risk a horrific replay of history. Sticker attached to dj as issued.
