About this listen

Professor Vlad Smith is on a terrifying quest, one that will take him from the halls of our most hallowed institutions to the most rundown of old houses in blighted neighborhoods. A mysterious committee, shredded yellowed newspapers, a daguerreotype of a Confederate soldier, a headless corpse, and a corpseless head....

These are the clues that Smith must piece together to save his sanity and his daughter and uncover the terrible secret of the Boss in the Wall.

This is a fantastic tale of an academic whose life is torn apart by an occurrence in an old house who goes chasing a folkloric myth through a series of wonderfully eccentric academic and historical circles, drenched with the atmosphere of lingering antebelllum and civil war memories. A small, perfectly-formed masterpiece of strangeness and suspense.
