Out there

"Evil and its seductive twin, Eros, lurk all over. Sometimes together, sometimes in battle. ... What happens on a hostile, dark beach in Provincetown, Massachusetts? In the steamy swamps of the Texas/Louisiana border? In the sex-soaked grove of the vengeful phallic god Himself? ... [Here also are] a strange plaster doll, the reminder of an innocent man's burning at the stake centuries before; a luminous child from the tombs of ancient Egypt, who can save you from the claw grip of death; a Connecticut suburb where the 'Stepford wives' are men - and the guests of a ghostly Halloween party held on the filthy floor of Manhattan's once notorious sex bar, the Mineshaft."--Page 4 of cover.
