Beschreibung

Elias Bell hears whispers under his skin. At first, a faint murmur. Then louder voices threading through his veins, bending his body, dragging up memories he’s tried to bury for years. Doctors call it stress. His wife calls it guilt. But Elias feels something older, patient, waiting inside him.
 
As his grip on himself weakens, the past keeps surfacing his brother’s drowning, the silence that followed, the guilt that never left. He finds others who confess to hearing the same voices. They speak of the Shadowkin, not myth but memory, born from shame and words never spoken.
 
The deeper he goes, the thinner the divide between madness and possession. His reflection moves off beat. His journal scribbles without his hand. And the woman who loves him might be carrying a fractured truth of her own.
 
In a world where grief cracks doors open and guilt pulses like a beacon, Elias has to face not only what he’s done but what he’s becoming.
 
When your body stops obeying, who’s left holding the pen?***
 
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.

    Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.  A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. 
     
    In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?  
     
    The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme.  Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. 
     
    Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made.  If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. 
     
    In this volume Horror and its evil intents try to burrow into our heads and cavort around as only demons, monsters, phantoms and ghosts can do.  They probably have other partners and friends too.  And you, sitting there all alone, and listening….. oh dear.
