We read it a while ago in school. Basically..it was an older town..where being were being murdered by some unknown thing(we never got to finish it). I remember it was..in a collection of stories by this pretty well known older author. I guess..older like..early 1900's it was mainly women who died. I remember the author had a collection of short stories. We never got to what the murderer was or who. It had more of a shirley jackson feel to it then dean koontz

Not enough to go on, sorry. Can you remember any other details? For example, when you say older, do you mean something that was written in 1850, for example, or older meaning more than five years ago? Was there a main character? If so, was it a male or a female? Was the murderer a person, or something non-human? Anything you can add will help someone figure out what story you're trying to find.

I continuously locate an same difficulty at the same time as attempting to come back up with names for a male personality, infrequently any fit the nature you're making on your recommendations yet listed less than are some I have a tendency to apply maximum as they fit a good number of the purposes and would save the reader in touch- Rhys Eddie Jesse Kasey Asher/Ashton Auden Dexter Caleb Greyson Trent/Trenton Brent Landon Lawson Beau Griffin Hunter Noah Drew Kyle Seth Mason Chase Ricky wish this helps yet one element you need to continuously do is depart the call as XXXXXX and continuously come decrease back and replace it the day his call hits you contained in the proper :)

Below are two sites that will give you hours of opportunity to search for this book.
I know your angst. I am trying to find the title of a science fiction/fantasy story I read in an anthology of 1930s classic SF & Fantasy edited by Isaac Asimov. The plot involved a reincarnation of the leader which was sabotaged by some unethical politicians looking for power. The reincarnate was very outrageous, but in the end it showed he was very aware of all that was going on, and the punishment was a perpetual torture wheel that the crook designed himself.
