Louisiana’s notorious Dartmoor Plantation is filled with horrifying secrets and its supernatural residents will do anything to protect them, even murder! Read Mark Leonard’s latest chilling novel THE CURSE OF THE DARTMOOR PLANTATION.In 1971 The Dartmoor Plantation was the most terrifying house in America.In 1971 Dennis Hopper was the craziest man in Hollywood.The two had to meet.Dartmoor Plantation has one of the darkest, bloodiest histories of any plantation in the South. Richard Turner, a prison-escaped murderer and mastermind of some of the bloodiest massacres of the American Revolution, fled to Louisiana where he built his cursed plantation with the blood money he looted during the war. Two centuries of lynching, plagues and plain raw murder ravage the owners of the plantation culminating in one of Louisiana’s most famous unsolved homicides at the conclusion of the Civil War.Riding high (literally) on the success of Easy Rider, Dennis Hopper returns to Louisiana in 1971 to prepare for his next film, a murder mystery set at The Dartmoor Plantation, one of America’s most haunted houses. He rents the home and gathers together a strange crew: an insane Academy Award winning actress and her sex kitten movie star daughter, a popular and racist TV sitcom sheriff, a hard-edged Mississippi Delta blues singer, an ambitious screenwriter, a ruthless French starlet, and a Voodoo Queen. Hopper stirs this Electric-Kool-Aid-Agatha-Christie gumbo until the provoked spirits of the house exact their revenge for a hundred-year-old voodoo curse.“ READ THIS BOOK! It’s scary, funny, clever, and I wish I wrote it. “ —Keith Szarabajka actor, writer: Star of Stephen King’s Golden Years, X-Files, The Dark Knight, Angel, Sons of Anarchy, ArgoWhat they said about Leonard’s first novel:TIN SOLDIERS is a terrific book told in great swatches of high and tight dialogue, very close to the bone. It's a book with a nasty chip on its shoulder, and an even nastier sense of humor. Acclaimed playwright Mark T. Leonard’s debut novel is a book worth waiting for, worth reading, and worth reading again. Frederick Barthelme, National award winning novelist, Director of The Center For Writers at The University of Southern Mississippi"A darkly funny portrait of struggling to survive and find identity in a dysfunctional military school. Leonard has a fine ear for dialogue and description, and a self-mocking humor that give this book a searing authenticity." Karl Fleming, Newsweek journalist and author of Son Of The Rough South.“If Joseph Heller and JD Salinger got snowbound and drunk together, they might have written TIN SOLDIERS. It is instant literature, with sex and violence overkill.”Ted Mann, writer/producer: “Deadwood,” “NYPD Blue,” “The Hatfields and McCoys"
