The Collected Horrors Of Tim Wellman - Plot & Excerpts
From any of the windows along the front of the big old house, the entire town was visible, laid out like a model train diorama, with the Ohio River in the distance, with the twin town of Kenoa to the west, and Ten Pole Creek corralling its eastward growth. Not that the town worried much about growth, there were still more trees than people, more grass than cement, and the old house had held its high ground, the Perry clan always ready to fight to keep what it had, even though there was seldom anyone to fight against. The old man, Jonathan Perry, had secured his position as town leader through shrewd, though ethically questionable, business deals during the war. No one was sure how he could lay his hands on so much scrap metal, but he did and quickly rolled the money he got from selling it to the federal government into local buildings and businesses in town. By the time the Japanese had signed MacArthur's documents, Perry, just out of high school, owned nearly everything in Ceres worth owning.
