About the book
A New York City detective finds himself battling an ancient evil that lurks in the dark recesses of the city.
Detective Al Russo is a walking cliché and he knows it. His obsession with his job and the adrenaline rush it brings has led to a failed marriage and a taste for alcohol.
Detective Russo is called to investigate, what appears to be a simple traffic accident that resulted in the death of a homeless person. However Al uncovers evidence that things may not be as they seem. His suspicions appear to be confirmed when he is confronted one night by a shadowy figure claiming the accident was actually murder. The figure threatens violence unless the perpetrators are delivered to him to extract vengeance.
The threats are followed by several unspeakable acts of savagery that are meant to send a message. A police operation hastily organized and executed to apprehend the person responsible for the violence ends in bloodshed and death.
Detective Russo now finds himself alone tracking an ancient enemy of man long since dismissed as legend. He must put his own life in danger and betray everything he believes in an attempt to prevent further bloodshed that would result in the deaths of tens of thousands.

About the book
Olivia was walking to class when everything changed. Abducted in broad daylight, she's thrown into a nightmare designed to strip her of identity and hope.
Locked in a room decorated like a twisted child’s dream—pink walls, rounded furniture, and everything bolted down—Olivia learns she’s now part of a “collection” kept by sadistic captors who view girls as nothing more than playthings.
But Olivia is no doll.
In Doll House, John Hunt delivers a relentless psychological thriller that’s as harrowing as it is unforgettable. Tense, raw, and unflinching, this is the story of a woman’s fight not just to survive—but to overcome.
Not for the faint of heart, but for readers who crave courage in the darkest of places.

About the book
Deep in the remote forests of Ireland, no map marks the way and no car makes it past the treeline. When Mina’s breaks down, she follows a desperate woman’s screams and finds herself trapped inside a concrete bunker surrounded by glass—and monsters.
Every night, when darkness falls, the Watchers emerge. Unseen but ever-present, they observe the captives like living exhibits, punishing anyone who lingers outside after sunset. As paranoia mounts and survival fractures the group, Mina realizes the forest hides more than predators—it hides purpose.
A.M. Shine’s The Watchers is a gripping, atmospheric horror debut that blends isolation, fear, and mythology into a haunting tale of survival. They are watching. They always have been.

About the book
In 1954, at the start of the Cold War, the Soviet military offered four political prisoners their freedom if they participated in an experiment requiring them to remain awake for fourteen days while under the influence of a powerful stimulant gas. The prisoners ultimately reverted to murder, self-mutilation, and madness.
None survived.
In 2018, Dr. Roy Wallis, an esteemed psychology professor at UC Berkeley, is attempting to recreate the same experiment during the summer break in a soon-to-be demolished building on campus. He and two student assistants share an eight-hour rotational schedule to observe their young Australian test subjects around the clock.
What begins innocently enough, however, morphs into a nightmare beyond description that no one could have imagined—with, perhaps, the exception of Dr. Roy Wallis himself.

Harvest Home
Horror
Our take
Seeking a healthier life for their daughter, the Constantines settle in the idyllic village of Cornwall Coombe. But beneath its pastoral charm lies something far darker.

About the book
A family flees the crime-ridden city—and finds something worse—in "a brilliantly imagined horror story" by the New York Times–bestselling author (The Boston Globe).
After watching his asthmatic daughter suffer in the foul city air, Theodore Constantine decides to get back to the land. When he and his wife search New England for the perfect nineteenth-century home, they find no township more charming, no countryside more idyllic than the farming village of Cornwall Coombe. Here they begin a new life: simple, pure, close to nature—and ultimately more terrifying than Manhattan's darkest alley.
When the Constantines win the friendship of the town matriarch, the mysterious Widow Fortune, they are invited to join the ancient festival of Harvest Home, a ceremony whose quaintness disguises dark intentions. In this bucolic hamlet, where bootleggers work by moonlight and all of the villagers seem to share the same last name, the past is more present than outsiders can fathom—and something far more sinister than the annual harvest is about to rise out of the earth.

About the book
Germany, 1507. Famine grips the village of Tierkinddorf, and desperation turns faith into fear. When a traveling friar arrives with the Malleus Maleficarum—the infamous Witch’s Hammer—he promises salvation through fire: find the witch, burn her, and God will provide.
Old and frail, Güde Müller tries to keep to herself, haunted by strange visions she cannot explain. But in a town starving for someone to blame, she is the perfect target. Even her daughter-in-law would trade her life for one less mouth to feed. And when Güde stumbles upon something horrific in the frozen woods, reality begins to blur into nightmare.
Erika Mailman’s The Witch’s Trinity is a chilling tale of hysteria, faith, and survival, where the line between sin and salvation burns away.

The Year of the Witching
Dark Fantasy · Occult Horror
Our take
In the rigid settlement of Bethel, Immanuelle Moore survives by obeying Holy Protocol—until a mistake draws her into the forbidden Darkwood. There, she uncovers her mother’s secrets and the lingering power of slain witches. As truths about the Church emerge, Immanuelle realizes Bethel’s greatest danger lies within—and change may begin with her.
Choose your retailer
About the book
A young woman living in a rigid, puritanical society discovers dark powers within herself in this stunning, feminist fantasy debut.
In the lands of Bethel, where the Prophet's word is law, Immanuelle Moore's very existence is blasphemy. Her mother’s union with an outsider of a different race cast her once-proud family into disgrace, so Immanuelle does her best to worship the Father, follow Holy Protocol, and lead a life of submission, devotion, and absolute conformity, like all the other women in the settlement.
But a mishap lures her into the forbidden Darkwood surrounding Bethel, where the first prophet once chased and killed four powerful witches. Their spirits are still lurking there, and they bestow a gift on Immanuelle: the journal of her dead mother, who Immanuelle is shocked to learn once sought sanctuary in the wood.
Fascinated by the secrets in the diary, Immanuelle finds herself struggling to understand how her mother could have consorted with the witches. But when she begins to learn grim truths about the Church and its history, she realizes the true threat to Bethel is its own darkness. And she starts to understand that if Bethel is to change, it must begin with her.
