  Salem, Massachusetts, B&B owner Charlene Morris will need the luck of the Irish—and the help of a ghost—to unveil a hooded killer . . . 
   
   
   
  Charlene has hired a van to ferry her B&B guests to an all-you-can-eat corned beef and cabbage dinner hosted by Salem's Irish community at the Ancient Order of Hibernians club—but she should have booked a hearse. It's never a good sign when the family black sheep drunkenly crashes a party by punching the guy dressed as a leprechaun. But things go from troublesome to fatal when Charlene stumbles upon a second brawl in an upper room—and this fight Connor Gallagher loses, his anonymous assailant rushing past Charlene, hidden by a hoodie. 
   
   
    
  Now Detective Sam Holden has another homicide on his hands, with Charlene as the only eyewitness. Even if she can't give the police sketch artist much to go on, Charlene is determined to ID the murderer, with the help of Dr. Jack Strathmore, the charming ghost who haunts her B&B. The answer lies in the motive, and to uncover that sleuth and spook will need to shine a light on Connor's shady past—before the killer pulls another Irish goodbye . . .

  Kenzi Brannon wakes in a psychiatric ward, her mind fractured between reality and hypnotic commands she can't escape. Haunting visions of underground chambers stalk her every thought, and one terrifying question lingers: What if she made me hurt someone? 
   
  While Kenzi fights to reclaim her identity, Billa uncovers chilling fragments of her own stolen past. Childhood drawings. Forgotten journals. A one-eyed teddy bear. Each clue points to a horrifying truth: she wasn't just a bystander. She was a victim too. 
   
  As Billa and Ember dig into the Radley Institution's buried secrets, the conspiracy grows more dangerous. Other survivors surface—some allies, others unknowingly programmed to silence anyone who gets too close. And in the deepest chambers of the abandoned facility, Billa uncovers a betrayal closer than she ever imagined. It could destroy everything she thought she knew about her family. 
   
  The Brannons must decide how far they're willing to go for the truth . . . because some echoes refuse to stay buried. Can they break free from the past before it consumes them completely? 
   
  Lost Echoes is perfect for fans of psychological thrillers with dark family secrets and relentless suspense.

  From Far Around They Saw Us Burn is the eagerly awaited first short story collection from Alice Jolly, one of the most exciting and accomplished voices in British fiction today.
  The extraordinary range of work gathered here is united by a fascination with how everyday interactions can transform our lives in unpredictable ways. These are stories of lonely people, outcasts and misfits, and the ghosts that inhabit our intimate spaces. The result is a compelling, arresting and, at times, devastating collection – not least in the title story, which was inspired by the tragic true events of the 1943 Cavan orphanage fire.
  Written with an exemplary eye for detail and an intimate understanding of the complexities of human nature, Jolly's collection builds up towards the ultimate question: what is revealed of us when we peel away the surfaces, and is it enough?

  A Thin Ghost and Others

  "Curiosity doesn't just kill the cat—it wakes things that should stay buried."
  
  In A Thin Ghost and Others, M. R. James invites you into the quiet world of dusty archives, secluded cathedrals, and English country estates—only to reveal the terrors lurking in the shadows. This collection features five haunting tales, including the titular "The Residence at Whitminster" and the unsettling "The Diary of Mr. Poynter." James's ghosts aren't your typical white-sheeted spirits; they are hairy, leathery, and intensely tactile creatures of malice. With a slow-burn build-up and a focus on atmospheric dread, these stories prove that the most terrifying things are those we find in the corner of our eye.
  
  The Master of Atmosphere: James is the undisputed king of the "quiet" horror story. He relies on the power of suggestion and the unsettling feeling of being watched. Whether it's a strange pattern on a piece of fabric or a figure seen from a distance that shouldn't be there, James knows exactly how to make your skin crawl without ever raising his voice.
  
  Scholarly Suspense: As a medieval scholar himself, James brings an authentic sense of history to his fiction. His protagonists are often academics who believe their knowledge protects them, only to find that the ancient world has teeth. The realism of the settings makes the intrusion of the supernatural all the more jarring and effective.
  
  Why It Is Essential for Horror Fans: If you prefer psychological dread over jump scares, A Thin Ghost and Others is a must-read. These stories influenced everyone from H.P. Lovecraft to modern filmmakers. They are the perfect accompaniment to a cold, windy night and a flickering fire.
