Excerpt of Trespassing Time by Barbara Baldwin, Jerri Garretson, Linda Madl, Sheri L. McGathy

...is there really anything as eerie as the vast open
fields and dark stands of woods that stretch across
America’s Heartland? What awaits us in this strange and
unfamiliar region and what tragic ghosts still walk in the
lonely places where no one can hear you when you scream?

The prairie of America can be a mysterious place and, to
those who come from the more populated regions, a strangely
unsettling one. Even to those of us who grew up on the
prairie, it’s hard to know what sometimes lurks around the
next corner of the road, or around the next bend in the
path.
