A Rose by Any Other Name...

Shortly after meeting Mme Malkhos many years ago I asked her about a small town in Southern Illinois called Mulberry Grove. She said she had been there once, on a buying expedition when she had worked in an antiques store. She thought it was the creepiest place she had ever been. The people reminded her of the Peacock family from the television show X-Files: looking inbred and dangerous.
