The Eaton is the award-winning debut novel of John K. Addis. Spanning over 100 years of mid-Michigan history, but written in the gruesome style of ‘80s horror classics, The Eaton tells the story of Sam Spicer, who purchases the dilapidated Michigan Central Railroad Depot in Eaton Rapids with the dream of opening a hot new martini bar. But when he and his friends unearth an abandoned underground hotel directly beneath the property, they must discover what happened to the original guests—before their own time runs out.
