  Prizewinner in New Welsh Writing Awards 2021 Rheidol Prize for Prose with a Welsh Theme or Setting
  'Compelling... humorous and tightly plotted, with a superb sense of urban space' – Gwen Davies, adjudication, New Welsh Writing Awards 2021

  Set in contemporary Cardiff, this diverse, pacey, high-concept time-warp crime novella explores themes of violence, ritual and alternative realities, while it seeks to honour the victims of serial killers and challenge the way that some have become part of the tourism industry.

  Editha's Burglar

  Frances Hodgson Burnett

  Editha was a queer little girl. She was rather old-fashioned, as her aunts used to call it, and was always very fond of books. Indeed, Editha perhaps read more than was quite good for her. She spent the greater part of her time in the library reading her papa's big books and newspapers. Her most recent obsession, derived from her daily news intake, was the subject of burglars. One night, when confronted with a real-life burglar, and with the conviction that she must protect her mother from the fright of such an intruder, Editha took it upon herself to confront the unusual nocturnal visitor.     Editha's Burglar was first published in 1888.

  ⛰️ Deep in the misty mountains, where cell service fades and the modern world seems a distant memory, stands Holmes Lodge—a place of rustic beauty, absolute privacy, and inexplicable dread. 
  When artist Emma and her skeptical husband Mark arrive for what should be a rejuvenating retreat, they discover they're the only guests. The proprietor, Mr. Holmes, welcomes them with unsettling politeness and wine that tastes like nothing they've ever experienced. 
  As night falls, the walls seem to whisper. Footsteps echo in empty hallways. Strange figures lurk at the forest's edge. And Emma begins to notice inconsistencies in the lodge's architecture—spaces that should exist, but don't. 
  When Emma discovers a yellowed floor plan hidden in their room, it confirms her growing suspicion: Holmes Lodge is not what it appears to be. But by then, it might already be too late. 
  Some secrets are buried deep. Some voices should remain unheard. Some doors were never meant to be opened. 🤐 
  And some who check into Holmes Lodge were never meant to leave. 🔥 
  A meticulously crafted tale of mounting dread and ancient horrors hiding in plain sight, THE LODGE will make you question every creak in the floorboards and every smile from a stranger. 
  Some accommodations offer much more than just a good night's sleep—they offer eternity. 💀

  In the first anthology of its kind, Robert Olen Butler and Phong Nguyen assemble an astounding collection of stories that cause listeners to contemplate war, peace, and social justice in a new light. The fourteen stories featured in this volume explore the varied and often unexpected outcomes of violence. The authors explore the tragedies that occur closer to home—not on military battlefields but rather in places that are never meant to be battlefields, like schools and churches. The fiction reveals the violence that renders our most sacred and seemingly safest of places vulnerable. 
   
   
   
  Not a utopian project, this book asks whether literature has a role in furthering the ongoing pursuit of peace and justice for all. While exploring tragedy, these stories also offer hope for healing, illuminating how people can move forward from the moments when their lives change and how they can regain and reshape safe spaces to find solace.
