Also, please replace current summary with the one from the back cover below.
"THE FIEND was standing outside the opera house tonight, a cigarette clamped in his teeth, its tip glowing like a signal from Hell.
"He drew in his breath. The cigarette glowed brighter. His eyes were impenetrably dark, except when they reflected the fiery ash at the end of his cigarette. He radiated unmistakable malevolence.
"It is unquestionably him, yet there can be no rational explanation for his unaltered presence after seventy years--only for the unbridled hatred in his eyes and the ghastly smile that played across his lips.
"Perhaps I am losing my mind.
"I pray that I am.
"May God have mercy on our souls."

The Savage Game Of Life And Death!
He was a brilliant psychopath with a contempt for all things human, weaving a gruesome web of horror that
stretched from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C.
He struck quickly, randomly, leaving no clues,
making no mistakes ... until he spilled the blood of the wrong victim.
Now one man has sworn vengeance for his family's destruction.
But the killer relishes the game, leading his relentless pursuer on a terrifying cat-and-mouse chase into the blackest depths of violence ... in a brutal, sinister contest played by a madman's rules: to the death!

The Library Lady
Old Emma Prescott had a way with children.
She showed them how to find books in the library
and she let them sit in a circle around her while she read them stories.
Center Hollow sure was lucky to have a librarian like her.
Especially when nearly a dozen kids had been reported missing over the last few months,
and you just didn't know who you could trust anymore ...
Miss Prescott had a way with dolls, too.
She had a whole collection of them that looked exactly like the town's children.
They almost looked alive ... with eyes that gleamed as they stared,
and skin so real that blood seemed to flow just beneath the surface.
Unlike the missing children, who were looking ... well, rather dead.
At least, no matter how many of Center Hollow's precious darlings disappeared,
her dolls would never leave her.
And they would never tell on her ...

Not sure if Google Books is acceptable or not. I also looked the book up on my local library website and it shows the page number as 374 also.
Worldcat is wrong sometimes due to human error.
#104 still has the wrong cover which I think is from fictiondb as it is the only place that I have been able to find that cover. fictiondb is not an acceptable site for covers according to GR policy so I still think that the cover should be switched out with the one displayed on amazon which matches my book.
#113 I don't know if Google Books is acceptable. If you have a physical copy, it trumps all other sources of course :)#114 Not really comfortable in deleting covers that were already added. :| An ACE, maybe?
Google books is not an acceptable source.

I can provide a picture of the last page showing the page count and back cover for the book in 109.
As for #114. Maybe only super librarians can see the source of the pictures. I know Z Squared and some other supes have removed/replaced covers added from fiction db. I'll send her a message. She'll know what to do. :)

Also, please fix the summary which seems to have been cut off during an amazon import.
#122: Fixed summary (from WorldCat) and changed page number. WorldCat has 359 pages, which Amazon has for its hard cover. I'll trust that you can justify 361. :-)
