“Missing People. Murder. Small Town Secrets. Corruption. Vigilantism. This book has it all. Can’t wait to read the next book in the series to see what kind of secret or unexplainable mysteries Uncle Joe will dig into next. Dripping with a thick Southern drawl, and told with the right amount of wit, quirky humor, and suspense to keep you reading well into the night. Well done Mr. Lane! Well done!” Review from Shaun K
Tales from Uncle Joe: Volume One
The First Five Southern-Gothic Mysteries from the Acclaimed Series
Murder. Missing people. Small-town secrets. Swamp legends. Southern charm and Louisiana Folklore.
Welcome to the world of Uncle Joe—where nothing is ever quite what it seems, and the deeper you dig, the darker it gets.
In this gripping collection, you’ll find the first five books in the Tales from Uncle Joe series, where Louisiana native Joe Conrad—“Uncle Joe” to most—stumbles into a string of chilling mysteries stretching from the Carolinas back to the haunted backwoods of his bayou home. Whether it’s a body in the marshy swamps, a cursed neighbor, or a legendary swamp monster leaving clawed-up corpses in its wake, Uncle Joe’s good-natured wit, grit, and gumption will carry him—and you—through every strange twist and turn.
Blending the paranormal flair of The X-Files, the heart of Forrest Gump, and the raw rural grit of Sling Blade, these tales are soaked in Southern atmosphere, laced with witty humor, and brimming with unforgettable characters and terrifying truths.
If you’re drawn to folklore, fringe mysteries, and tales soaked in swamp water and Southern soul, then saddle up in your Jon boat and take a ride with Uncle Joe—just don’t be surprised if what you find makes your skin crawl.
This is only the beginning. The South has many secrets . . . and Uncle Joe’s just getting started.
