A manic, inventive, and painfully funny debut novel, Lord of the Barnyard is about a town's dirty laundry--and a garbagemen's strike that lets it all hang out. . . . A tornado of almost biblical proportion (Le Monde).

Something is running amok in the fields of Pennsylvania Amish country. To solve the mystery, three generations of prodigal sons are brought together in a masterfully orchestrated, hilarious, and compelling take on the classic horror yarn.
