Yes, that's a face on the book's cover and yes, it's in a jar. However, the woman depicted is probably NOT Eleanor Rigby.I first became familiar with Bill (I knew him and was told to call him that) Johnstone through his myriad of oddball horror novels. He also wrote post-apocalyptic stuff, Westerns, military thrillers and worked in many other genres as well.
NIGHT MASK is one of his more unusual books because it combines a serial killer story with some other weirdness, including werewolves.
You never knew what you were going to get with a Bill Johnstone horror novel; therein lay the charm.
I hope they re-print all his horror novels so that I have a fighting chance to get those I missed.
