    It is said that books are written to bring sunshine into our dull, grey lives – to show us places we want to escape to, lives we want to live, people we want to love. But there are also stories that can only be found in the deepest, darkest corners of the library. Stories about the unexplained, of lost souls, of things that go bump before the silence. Before the screaming. 
    And some stories just disappear. Stories printed in old newspapers, broadcast live on the wireless, sometimes not even published at all – these are the stories you cannot find on even the dustiest of library shelves. 
    This follow-up volume to the bestselling Ghosts from the Library resurrects forgotten tales of the supernatural by some of the most accomplished mystery authors of all time. Close the windows. Draw the curtains. Just don’t let the lights go out… 
    Tony Medawar, a top editor in the realm of fiction, presents Wicked Spirits, a collection of horror and crime stories that delve into the unexplained and the supernatural. These anthologies, steeped in traditional storytelling, are a must-read for fans of detective thrillers.

    Losing a loved one is hard—losing three is heart shattering. Within less than a year, Josephine has lost the three most important men in her life in two separate accidents. How does one come back from a hurt that grips you so tightly that it's hard to even breathe? 
     
     
     
    When her estranged father leaves a will naming her and her sisters the sole heirs of the inn and restaurant in Oak Harbor, Jo finds herself putting her pride aside and heading back to the one place she'd vowed never to return. 
     
     
     
    Josephine is finally finding her way after being lost for so long, but when secrets that should have been buried start resurfacing, she runs the risk of losing the most important person in her life. She now realizes the life she's hanging onto is about to become shattered into pieces. 
     
     
     
    She's found her footing with her once estranged sisters, but one wrong word is all it could take to topple this fragile bond. Add in a terminally ill mother and you can understand why she's hesitant to give in to the beginning of a new love. 
     
     
     
    Will the loss and fragility of her relationships be too much for Josephine to bear or can she open her heart to an enduring love?
