Sly Fox Hollow

KILLER NASHVILLE SILVER FALCHION AWARD TOP PICK (COMEDY)

“A delightful literary romp that’s part murder mystery and part exploration of postindustrial America, Sly Fox Hollow has it all—crooked small-town politics, Michigan Dogmen, and characters that’ll thrill and frustrate and fascinate you. What sort of monsters are making folks disappear in little Fox Hollow, and why? Come get lost in Brett Allen’s wild vision and find out, if you dare.”

-Matt Gallagher, author of YOUNGBLOOD and EMPIRE CITY

“In SLY FOX HOLLOW, Brett Allen delivers a bushel of laughs and frights, all in a glorious stew of monsters, small-town politics, and corruption. This novel tastes like the titular town’s applesauce itself: sweet and tart.”

-David Abrams, Author of FOBBIT and BRAVE DEEDS

“Pastors. The elderly. Small-town politics. Children. Nothing and no one is safe when the Michigan dogman hunts, or when Brett Allen unleashes his biting wit and keen eye for gruesome detail in his explosive sophomore novel SLY FOX HOLLOW. Bomber Merridan’s quest to uncover long-buried secrets puts him straight into the jaws of danger. A cryptid murder mystery pumping Stephen King’s horrors through its veins, a cinematic whirlwind that would exhaust Tarantino, a Heller-esque exposé of our fame-obsessed social media-fueled society, and a sly and timely look at a town straight out of Stranger Things, this story burns from the history books to the headlines. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.”

-Travis Klempan, author of HAVE SNAKES, NEED BIRDS and HILLS HIDE MOUNTAINS

“Don’t let the regional folklore fool you. Brett Allen does a masterful job writing a part creature feature, part dark humor memoir that is anything but niche…With vibes of Wes Anderson, Tarantino, and Jim Jarmusch, fans of self-aware scares and inside jokes will fly through Allen’s sophomore novel. An apple a day, won’t keep the Dogman away. Hilarious, authentic, and doggone frightening!”

-Ryan Young, author of KEEPER OF THE DEAD

William “Bomber” Merridan is a small-town grocery store manager by day and a cryptid hunter by night. While Bigfoot is sexier, Bomber’s passion is for the legendary Michigan Dogman.

Connie Hayes is Fox Hollow’s first-ever female Sheriff, not to mention the first Native American to hold the powerful position. Now, only months into her new role, she faces no shortage of obstacles from a town used to her patriarchal predecessor.

Normally, these two would mix like oil and water, but when the town mayor is brutally killed, both Connie and Bomber set off to find who or what is behind the slaughter. Not everyone in Fox Hollow sees the mayor’s death as a tragedy, though, and in a rush to fill the mayor’s seat, two polarizing local politicians use fear of the Dogman to stoke tensions and turn the once peaceful community into a cauldron of hostility, distrust, and political tribalism. As Connie hunts the killer and Bomber hunts his weird, regionally-specific werewolf, they uncover the truth of Fox Hollow’s murky past, a century-old curse, and a sinister plot that could leave the town in ruins.
