Turn up the sound -- but after you watch the video, don't give away the secret!

Isis by Douglas Clegg in bookstores Sept. 29, 2009 -- more at http://www.DouglasClegg.com -- with illustrations by Glenn Chadbourne.

-- the ultimate Halloween read of the year.

In the book trailer for Isis:

Against the breaking dawn, a red mist evaporates to reveal the standing stone of the Maiden's face...who is she?

What is the stone idol?

Is this a zombie in this video, or something else? What do you think -- is it a haunting or is it the living dead?
