About

Reads & Company will be on hand selling copies of Adam’s books, including Clown in a Cornfield, Clown in a Cornfield 2: Frendo Lives, and Clown in a Cornfield 3: The Church of Frendo. Adam will be happy to sign your purchases following the Q&A.

Adapted to a screenplay by Carter Blanchard and Craig, CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD follows Quinn and her father, who have just moved to the quiet town of Kettle Springs hoping for a fresh start. Instead, she discovers a fractured community that has fallen on hard times after the treasured Baypen Corn Syrup Factory burned down. As the locals bicker amongst themselves and tensions boil over, a sinister, grinning figure emerges from the cornfields to cleanse the town of its burdens, one bloody victim at a time. Welcome to Kettle Springs. The real fun starts when Frendo the clown comes out to play.
