Terry Lamsley's first collection, Under the Crust, was set in and around his hometown of Buxton in England's Peak District. Lamsley had initially hoped the stories might appeal to local readers and tourists, but excitement quickly spread beyond Buxton as enthusiasts of supernatural fiction realized that an exciting new talent had emerged.
