REVIEW: WELCOME TO SUGARVILLE by . J. J. Haas (aka Jeff Haas) is a collection of short stories focusing on the town and inhabitants of Sugarville, a city located in the Gwinett County in the northeast suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia.

Approximately one hundred and eighty years earlier the US Army massacred six hundred Creek Indians in the area now known as Sugarville, Georgia. Fast forward to present day wherein a series of supernatural phenomenon, and strange occurrences befall the residents of the sleepy town, occurrences that place the people in a ‘twilight zone’ not of their making.

J. J . Haas blends the past with the present, the supernatural with the mundane, Christianity and spirituality with the non-believers, all of whom struggle in their every day lives. A series of interconnected short stories, focusing on the citizens of a town cursed by the past, a past that refuses to forgive or forget.

WELCOME TO SUGARVILLE is an intriguing fusion of mystery, thriller, vengeance and the supernatural .
