Summary

"I heard the snap of their jaws, the click and scrape of their fingernails on the cold, metal door. They were angry, impatient and hungry. Their loud tortured screams pierced the otherwise quiet corridor; there was no one left now. No one left, except me."
 
Nick Jenkins cannot sleep. He drinks too much. All he can think about is her, and the night she disappeared. He is being taunted by her face, by those creatures who keep wearing it, mocking him. He is close, so close, but he is not the only one looking for her. Who will get to her first? And if he finds her, will she be the same as he remembered?
 
Bekki Pate has achieved something special with her debut novel The Willow Tree, the first book in The Fragment Trilogy. The writing is exceptional, the characters believable, the concept original. A wholly unique take on the classic scary story, this will keep you gripped until its stunning conclusion. --David McCaffrey, author of Hellbound
 
The Willow Tree is an enthralling and captivating thriller that draws you closely into the characters thoughts through suspenseful storytelling that is both mysterious and horrifying. --Jay Plemons, author of Last Light Falling series
 
The Willow Tree is an impressively frightening read. Bekki Pate's descriptive prose is hauntingly beautiful and will give even the most hardened of horror fans a chill. The nightmarish creatures that haunt the characters will have you trembling as you turn each page, leaving you with a thirst for more. --Ryan Mark, author of Tremor

    "A Reminiscence of Dr. Samuel Johnson" is a short story written in 1917 by American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft. It was first published in the September 1917 issue of the United Amateur, under the pseudonym Humphrey Littlewit, Esq.The story is a spoof of Lovecraft's antiquarian affectations. Littlewit, the narrator, is born August 20, 1690–200 years to the day before Lovecraft's birthdate—making him nearly 228 years old as he writes a memoir.Critic Daniel Harms writes, "While not one of the most inspired of his pieces, it at least shows that HPL realized his pretensions... of being an older, cultured gentleman of an earlier era, and could make fun of himself."
