Sinopse

When journalist Rhea Linden returns to the crumbling village of her childhood, she isn’t chasing a headline she’s chasing memory. A chapel that shouldn’t exist. A girl frozen in time. A house that exhales her name through its walls.
 
Sent to profile the town’s fading folklore, Rhea stumbles on a rumor that won’t let go: some children never cast shadows after dark. The locals dodge her questions. The records don’t add up. And something has been waiting for her to come back.
 
As she retraces the forgotten corners of her youth, what she once called imagination starts to feel real. Whispers slide through the floorboards. Dolls shift when she isn’t looking. A mirror reflects more than her face. Pages in her notebook fill with words she never wrote details only someone inside the house could know.
 
But the deeper she digs, the less certain she becomes. Is she the one documenting the story, or the one being written?
 
With reality bending under her feet and a presence shadowing every move, Rhea must confront what was left behind and what never let her go.
 
Some stories don’t end. They wait. And they write back.
 
Would you return to the place that erased you if it swore to tell the truth?
 
***
 
This novel is part of SHADOWKIN: The Shadow of Death, a chilling series of interconnected standalone paranormal thrillers, where every shadow hides a secret and every story brings you closer to the darkness.
 
In the hidden alleys of forgotten towns and the broken edges of memory, the Shadowkin wait. They’re not just creatures in the dark they’re shaped from guilt, grief, and the secrets we can’t bury.
 
SHADOWKIN: The Shadow of Death drags you into a world where walls breathe, shadows whisper, and silence presses like a weight. Each tale begins with a quiet unease and ends with a truth you don’t want to face: the Shadowkin aren’t strangers at all, but the pieces of ourselves we fear the most.
 
Enter these standalone stories where every truth cuts deeper, and every ending opens another door.
Disponível desde: 25/08/2025.

    An author’s talents may seem obvious and indisputable as they move words and ideas into gathered phrases and stories. 
     
    But where do these ideas and stories come from?  A lonely thought that suddenly gathers form?  An inspiration from a Muse?  A suggestion from an everyday event? 
     
    Perhaps in the case of their darker, more malevolent stories, other forces are at work.  They help to nourish single words into sentences and paragraphs that ease themselves from the shadows and are suddenly upon us in twisted revelation that may thrill, may disturb, but will always engage and help us explore the edge of darkness where some of the very best literature patiently lurks …. waiting …. for the likes of me and you.

    What if every recipe you cooked cost you a memory? 
    When Emily, a passionate food blogger, inherits her grandmother’s old farmhouse cookbook, she expects tradition… not terror. The leather-bound book is filled with rustic European recipes — and one chilling instruction at the end of each dish: 
    “Cook alone. Do not taste.” 
    At first, the changes are subtle. The air grows heavy. Doors close on their own. Faint chewing echoes from the kitchen at night. 
    Then her memories begin to disappear. 
    Names vanish from her phone. Faces blur in photographs. Even her own reflection feels unfamiliar. 
    As Emily dives deeper into the cookbook’s secrets, she discovers the final recipe titled “Host.” Its last instruction reads: 
    “Serve yourself.” 
    Now she must uncover the truth — before she becomes the final ingredient. 
    Haunted Recipe Book is a psychological horror audiobook blending supernatural suspense, ancestral secrets, and slow-burning dread. Perfect for fans of eerie domestic horror and unsettling mysteries that linger long after the final chapter.

    A single voice note. One harmless listen… or so it seems. 
    When Rachel sends a strange audio message to her college group chat, it spreads like wildfire. At first, it’s just curiosity. A joke. Something to pass around between classes. But those who dare to listen twice hear something else—something buried beneath the sound. 
    A whisper. 
    And it knows exactly how they will die. 
    As fear grips the campus, skepticism turns into panic. Predictions begin to feel real. Nightmares bleed into waking life. And no one can tell if the curse is psychological… or something far more sinister. 
    Desperate to break the cycle, a group of students races against time to uncover the truth behind the voice note—before their own fates catch up with them. 
    In a world where everything goes viral, some things should never be played twice. 
    Press play… if you dare.
