Synopsis

The Devil Light by Edgar Wallace is a spine-tingling mystery that delves into the supernatural and the sinister. When a strange, eerie light begins to appear over a desolate English moor, it sparks fear and speculation among the locals. But what seems like a mere ghost story quickly turns deadly as those who venture too close to the light meet tragic fates. Detective John Merrion is called to unravel the mystery, but the more he investigates, the more he finds himself entangled in a web of ancient curses, dark secrets, and inexplicable phenomena. Is there a rational explanation, or is something truly otherworldly at play? This haunting tale will keep you guessing until the very end.

    Sylph or Satan is the fourth instalment in the crime thriller series featuring DS Taylor Nicks and DC Marcus Black. A young sylph-like woman smiles sweetly as she tilts her head to the side, her eyes meeting with those of terror. He is helpless, exposed and vulnerable, his strength taken from him, his lifeless limbs incapable of saving his own life or harming her ever again. Her eyes darken as she moves closer, tiny in stature, innocent to those watching with an unhealthy desire. She whispers in his ear, and tears begin to run down his cheek as she raises a single finger to push his head beneath the water. Taylor Nicks and Marcus Black are back crime fighting once again, the streets of Edinburgh steeped in history and now the hunting ground of the innocent. The body count rises, but Taylor's team fails to make the connection and the officers are ten steps behind in the pursuit of the most unlikely serial killer. Retribution, revenge, hatred, sadness, love, lust and violence in abundance, this book will have you looking over your shoulder everywhere you go. Perhaps you won't look at others with such naivety in future... not everyone is as they seem.  Another sinister, dark and alarming story of a young woman whose world is turned upside down through no fault of her own and takes out her hate-filled revenge on anyone who crosses her path.

    Within the mysterious confines of Chicago's Andersonville neighborhood, Prudence Osgood, 45, queer AF, tormented by chronic pain, opioid addiction, and a tempestuous relationship with alcohol, captains The Spectral Inspectors—an ensemble of ghost hunters, each wrestling with their inner ghosts. In Osgood as She Gets, the third installment of The Spectral Inspector series, a sinister phenomenon known as The Graveyard Game emerges, drawing in fearless teenagers who dare to confront their own mortality by gazing into the hooded statue's eyes. As suicides surge, a chilling question arises: Is this disturbing game to blame, or does it have a connection to the elusive North Side Slasher? With time running out, The Spectral Inspectors must unravel the mystery that threatens their beloved city. 
    Osgood as She Gets delves deep into themes of regret, survivor's guilt, the relentless fight for survival, and the haunting art of letting go. With a tone that balances moments of light-heartedness and warmth with periods of profound introspection and spine-tingling terror, this novel invites you to join Osgood, Audrey, and Zack as they navigate the twisted realms of the supernatural. Can they unearth the truth before the shadows swallow them whole? 
    Reviewers are calling Osgood as She Gets "A trippy, cosmical joyride grappling with terror, pain, guilt, and bad decisions," "An engaging and grisly caper," "deeply chilling, yet profoundly human," and "A haunting, dream-like urban fantasy that stings and satisfies like a bitter-sweet shot of whiskey," and main character Prudence Osgood "a protagonist for the ages: bold, brash and absolutely captivating," "a lovable disaster," and "the bad habit you didn't know you needed." They say of writer Beckett that he "writes with the accessibility and charm of Stephen King, but with the queer knowledge and language to appeal to an often-ignored audience."

    "The Willows" is one of Algernon Blackwood's best known and creepiest stories. Many say it is his best and scariest. American horror author H.P. Lovecraft considered it to be the finest supernatural tale in English literature. He wrote in his treatise "Supernatural Horror in Literature", "Here art and restraint in narrative reach their very highest development, and an impression of lasting poignancy is produced without a single strained passage or a single false note." "The Willows" is an example of early modern horror and is connected within the literary tradition of weird fiction. Is it scary? Yes, yes it is.
