  The story involves a mine that uncovers a very deep chasm, too deep for any sounding lines to hit bottom. The night after the discovery of the abyss the narrator and one of the mine's workers, a Mexican called Juan Romero, venture together inside the mine, drawn against their will by a mysterious rhythmical throbbing in the ground. Romero reaches the abyss first and is swallowed by it. The narrator peers over the edge, sees something – "but God, I dare not tell you what I saw!" and loses consciousness. The next morning, the narrator and the deceased Romero are both found in their bunks. Other miners swear that neither of them left their cabin that night. The chasm has vanished as well.

  'An atmospheric gothic mystery, with hope at its heart. The Surgeon's House gripped me from the first page' Jodie Matthews
  London, 1883.
  The brutal murder of Rose Parmiter seems, at first glance, to be a random and senseless act. Rose was the beloved cook at Evergreen House, a place of refuge for women and children, a place from which they can start their lives afresh. Proprietor Rebecca Harris is profoundly shocked by the death of her dear friend and alarmed at the mysterious events which begin to unfold shortly afterwards. Could the past be casting a shadow on the present? The malign legacy of the Everley family who called Evergreen home, cannot be ignored.
  After two further deaths it becomes clear there is an evil presence infecting their sanctuary, and Rebecca must draw out the poison of the past so the Evergreen residents can finally make peace with the darkness in their lives.
  'A gripping, intelligent gothic novel that lingers well beyond its final page' Historical Novels Review

  Series Placement: Number 27 in the Timeless Terrors series 
  Description: 
  The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe remains one of the most haunting and iconic poems in the history of literature — a mesmerizing study of grief, memory, and the slow unraveling of reason. On a bleak December night, a bereaved scholar is visited by a mysterious raven whose single utterance, “Nevermore,” becomes a refrain of despair echoing through the chambers of his soul. 
  Through Poe’s hypnotic rhythm and rich, musical language, The Raven captures the descent from melancholy into madness — a lyrical exploration of love lost and the mind’s torment when faced with the finality of death. Its imagery, cadence, and psychological depth have made it an enduring symbol of gothic horror and tragic beauty. 
  Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this rendition brings new life to Poe’s dark masterpiece, balancing the poem’s haunting melody with a performance steeped in sorrow and dread. While the text itself resides in the public domain, this narration is an original work and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
  Part of Timeless Terrors, a series devoted to resurrecting the enduring works of classic horror and the uncanny, The Raven stands as a timeless elegy to love, loss, and the unquiet mind — where the voice of the dead may yet answer from the dark. 
  Prepare for a journey through shadow and sorrow, where memory takes wing, and reason falls beneath the beat of the black bird’s cry.

  Graveyard The - A Short Story...

  At the end of our days we will most likely lie for eternity in the cemetery or graveyard.  Many of these, now wreathed in time, have a romance and overgrown beauty as nature keeps and shelters the dead.  These acres may be the final resting place for those who have passed but for those who visit peace may not be as easy to find.  Grief may still pull at the heart, memories continue to overwhelm, or, even those drawn simply by its history, may encounter different feelings or experiences once inside these cities of the dead.  
   
  For our varied and talented authors, a major theme, or indeed character of the stories in this volume is that very location, and how they weave it into their narratives is both fascinating, enlightening and a wonderfully distinct way of telling classic short stories.
