Painter’s Green
by Cyrus Wraith
Walker
Brushville,
Oregon is a dying town. Business is bad and even the crops are now
dying, thanks to a water shortage. Terry Painter’s contracting work for
The Brushville Paint Contractors has dried up right along with the
town. All of that changes when he finds a special can of paint, called
PAINTER’S GREEN….
Cyrus Wraith Walker has an engaging writing style that quickly draws
the reader into the story. Told from the first person perspective,
PAINTER’S GREEN chronicles just how quickly a blessing can turn into a
curse. Terry’s unexpected fortune doesn’t lead to happiness despite
solving his immediate monetary problems. In today’s economic
environment, PAINTER’S GREEN is a particularly chilling reminder that
“get rich quick” schemes, even when well intentioned, often have
horrible consequences.
PAINTER’S GREEN is absolutely brilliant! Cyrus Wraith Walker sucks the
reader right into the story as the horror mounts. This is classic
horror at its best, without a reliance on gore. Instead, the author
creates a scenario anyone could encounter and uses phenomenal
characterization and atmosphere to showcase this gripping tale. Bravo!
