About the book
A Most Anticipated Novel by Pop Sugar * Book Riot * Betches * Bustle * and more!
"Utterly spellbinding....Witchcraft meets thriller."--Pop Sugar
Two sisters go missing on a remote Scottish island. Twenty years later, one is found--but she's still the same age as when she disappeared. The secrets of witches have reached across the centuries in this chilling Gothic thriller from the author of the acclaimed The Nesting.
When single mother Liv is commissioned to paint a mural in a 100-year-old lighthouse on a remote Scottish island, it's an opportunity to start over with her three daughters--Luna, Sapphire, and Clover. When two of her daughters go missing, she's frantic. She learns that the cave beneath the lighthouse was once a prison for women accused of witchcraft. The locals warn her about wildlings, supernatural beings who mimic human children, created by witches for revenge. Liv is told wildlings are dangerous and must be killed.
Twenty-two years later, Luna has been searching for her missing sisters and mother. When she receives a call about her youngest sister, Clover, she's initially ecstatic. Clover is the sister she remembers--except she's still seven years old, the age she was when she vanished. Luna is worried Clover is a wildling. Luna has few memories of her time on the island, but she'll have to return to find the truth of what happened to her family. But she doesn't realize just how much the truth will change her.

HEX
Horror · Occult Horror
Our take
In the haunted town of Black Spring, the Black Rock Witch roams with her eyes and mouth sewn shut. No one may leave, and no one dares defy her—until a group of teens break the rules and unleash something unspeakable. HEX, praised by Stephen King and George R.R. Martin, is Thomas Olde Heuvelt’s chilling horror debut.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Whoever is born in Black Spring is doomed to stay until death. Whoever settles there never leaves.
The town looks idyllic, nestled in the Hudson Valley, but its streets belong to the Black Rock Witch—a seventeenth-century woman whose eyes and mouth are sewn shut. Muzzled, she wanders through kitchens, bedrooms, and children’s dreams, her presence a warning never to look upon her face.
Desperate to contain the curse, the elders of Black Spring monitor every movement through hidden cameras and strict rules. But when restless teenagers defy the town’s silence, their rebellion awakens something far older and far more terrifying.
Praised by Stephen King and George R.R. Martin, HEX marks Thomas Olde Heuvelt’s electrifying English-language debut in modern horror.

The Dead Children’s Playground
Horror · Thriller · Paranormal Romance
Our take
A haunted playground beside a cemetery is already bad enough.

In The Dead Children’s Playground, Kylie and Kayla are pulled into a chilling supernatural mystery where the past is very much not buried and the cost of finding answers could be permanent. This fits horror readers who love ghost stories with creepy small-town history, family tension, and a body count that refuses to stay in the past.

About the book
Queen Beauty and King Charming lived happily ever after. At least, until the birth of their daughter. Despite their invitations, none of the fairies show up to give the princess a name-blessing, something Beauty is determined her daughter should receive. Rashly, she decrees that her daughter will either have a name-blessing or no name at all. With that one decision, she unwittingly casts a dark shadow over the land.
Growing up, the princess shared her mother's dream of getting a name-blessing, but that's the only thing that they have in common. For everything else, there's the Lady in the Mirror. The Lady listens to her, and unlike her father, isn't afraid to criticise her mother, Beauty.
After many years of waiting, the fairies are finally coming, and the princess will do anything to get her name-blessing.
Anything.

Elizabeth doesn’t know the limits of the tyrant’s ambitions for her kingdom – and maybe herself – but she knows she’ll do anything to protect her people, her claim to the throne and her father’s very life.
