Step into the unsettling world of Stephen Graham Jones with Three Miles Past (2011), a chilling collection of three novellas: Interstate Love Affair, No Takebacks, and The Coming of Night. In this episode, Jim dives into each story with spoiler-lite synopses, then shares why this volume stands out as a delightfully creepy addition to Jones’ growing body of work.
From serial killers on the open road, to deadly tech horror, to supernatural madness creeping into the everyday—each tale puts you squarely inside the mind of a protagonist, whether you want to be there or not. Jim also highlights eight reasons horror fans and SGJ enthusiasts alike should add this one to their shelves.
