Sinopse

Italy is a land of beauty, faith, and ancient stone—but beneath its churches, streets, and quiet villages, something older listens.Echoes from the Italian Dark is a collection of atmospheric horror tales rooted in Italian folklore, forgotten rituals, and places where memory refuses to die. From bells that answer questions never spoken aloud, to catacombs that sing lullabies meant for the dead, these stories explore how ordinary lives are slowly reshaped by supernatural forces that do not scream—they remember.Each chapter unfolds in a different Italian setting:A hill town where a church bell keeps a ledger of vanished childrenUnderground catacombs that trade comfort for silenceStone faces carved into walls that take small but precious thingsHouses that remember their inhabitants too wellThis is slow-burn, literary horror—where dread grows through habits, rituals, and quiet compromises rather than shock alone. The supernatural here does not invade; it coexists, asking only to be acknowledged.Perfect for readers who enjoy folklore-driven horror, psychological unease, and stories that linger long after the final page.

    Disappearances ensnare two South African detectives in a web of corruption in this stunning thriller by the Barry Award–winning author of The Last Hunt.   Assigned to investigate the disappearance of a young university student and brilliant computer programmer detectives Benny Griessel and Vaughn Cupido hit dead ends. But the trail—including the death of a fellow police officer—leads to a series of gun heists and the alarming absence of certain weapons from the police registry, the ramifications of which could be devastating.   As Griessel and Cupido intensify their search, real estate agent Sandra Steenberg confronts her own crisis: state corruption has caused the real estate market to crash, exacerbating the dire financial straits facing her family. She puts aside her misgivings to work for a notorious billionaire and playboy, only to have him disappear on her. Now Griessel is forced to juggle between the man’s bitter wife, protective lawyer, and Steenberg, the last person to see him alive.   With propulsive and intricate plotting, sharp prose, and an ending that takes one’s breath away just when the dust seems to have settled, The Dark Flood spotlights the state capture and corruption that has overtaken the country, lending political weight to a powerful story.  Praise for the Benny Griessel series   “[An] outstanding series.” —The Wall Street Journal   “Deon Meyer is one of the unsung masters.” —Michael Connelly, #1 New York Times–bestselling author   “The undisputed champion of South African crime. Meyer grabs you by the throat and never lets you go.” —Wilbur Smith, New York Times–bestselling author
