Tales from Two-Bit Street and Beyond... Part II consists of thirteen tales, based on legends of Ogden, Utah's Historic 25th Street. This infamous street came into being with the opening of Union Station during the completion of the First Transcontinental Railroad in 1869. The original Union Station burned down in 1923. During the early 20th century, 25th Street was THE place in Ogden. In between family-owned shops, restaurants, ice cream parlors, and hotels there was bootlegging, gambling, narcotic sales, and prostitution. The rich history and spooky legends are where the Two-Bit authors found the fodder for their stories. The tales are scary, funny, melancholy, and sometimes a bit racy.

Here's what people have to say about the Tales from The Wasatch and Beyond...Zoe Sharp, (England) author of the highly acclaimed Charlie Fox crime thriller series: "Reading this collection has been a treat. The scale and imagination of the stories stretches from the Moby Dick of grizzly bears, campfire tales of giant wolves, a ghost train in the desert and the perils of staying just a little too long at the late-night antique store, via the lure of the stars-either above a midnight lake or spread across a movie theatre ceiling-making friends with new (and old) neighbors, and how far one brother will go for another, to the dangers of a disused silver mine, the restless souls of forgotten soldiers, a Native American legend, and a curse that follows one family across the generations."Stan Trollip, (Michael Stanley) (South Africa) Barry Award for best Paperback, Death of the Mantis. "Every story is tightly written and imaginative, giving the reader a lovely sense of the myths and legends of this section of the Utah Mountains. Some stories were creepy, some scary-but all fascinating. This is an excellent read. I recommend it highly."
