Synopsis

In "The Dead Tryst," James Grant weaves a haunting narrative that explores themes of love, loss, and the supernatural. Set against a backdrop of early 20th-century Scotland, the novel employs rich, evocative prose that captures the ethereal beauty of its landscape while delving into the psychological depths of its characters. Grant's literary style melds realism with elements of gothic fiction, creating an atmosphere thick with tension and intrigue. The story unfolds through the eyes of a grieving protagonist who encounters spirits from the past, prompting a reflection on unresolved emotions and ancient sorrows. James Grant, a Scottish author known for his vivid storytelling, draws upon his own experiences with the folklore and history of his homeland to inform his writing. His keen interest in the intersections of the living and the dead underscores the thematic depth of "The Dead Tryst." Having been influenced by the Romantic literary tradition, Grant's work often contemplates the relationship between nature and the human experience, making this novel a poignant addition to his literary oeuvre. I highly recommend "The Dead Tryst" to readers who appreciate richly crafted narratives steeped in emotion and atmospheric tension. This novel not only serves as a captivating tale but also invites introspection on the nature of love and the haunting specters of our past. It is an essential read for anyone intrigued by the supernatural and the complexities of human relationships.

    How can she prove her innocence when she can't remember her past? 
    Valerie’s back and Thorn put me in charge of training her, so . . . yeah, I guess I’m in the best position to suss out if she’s innocent or guilty. FYI, she’s guilty AF. 
    Hear me out, though: no one is this bad at training. Also, if she can’t remember anything, then why are sparks obviously flying between her and Jaemin? And third, whenever that creep Ajax crawls out of his hole in Nether, Valerie is suspiciously nearby. 
    I don't know. Maybe I just don’t like the questions she’s asking. Questions about where I was the night of the eclipse. I’m not the one accused of being a traitor, so let’s all just keep our eyes on the guilty party.

    Mark is uprooted from his home and high school in the Twin Cities and forced to move with his family into a Victorian in Nowhere-ville. Busy with the relocation and fitting in, Mark’s parents don’t see what’s unfolding around them—the way rooms and left behind objects seem alive with a haunted past. 
    That past is the mid-1800s where Emma dwells. Tormented by the loss of her mother and having to live with her overbearing father who hopes to see the eradication of all indigenous people, she nurses soldiers back to health. Her torment escalates as she develops a passion for the Native American hired hand who sleeps just beyond her bedroom door. Together, they must unite to battle the supernatural force threatening to consume—and curse—all who dare to tread on the grounds. Will their forbidden love survive? 
    Back in the 1980s, Mark keeps his ghostly encounters to himself, all the while sinking deeper into the house's dark, alluring, and ultimately terrifying history. As romantic entanglements with the ghostly Emma intensify, the paranormal activity heightens. Past and present come together. Everything is connected—from the bricks in the walls to the hearts beating in their chests, all the secrets of Fountain Dead are finally unearthed.

    The Collected Ghost Stories of M. R. James is an omnibus collection of ghost stories. Many of these stories are time-tested classics. Montague Rhodes James is best remembered for his ghost stories, which some consider among the best in the genre. He redefined the ghost story for the new century by abandoning many of the formal Gothic clichés of his predecessors and using more realistic contemporary settings. However, his protagonists and plots tend to reflect his own antiquarian interests. Accordingly, he is known as the originator of the "antiquarian ghost story".H. P. Lovecraft was an admirer of James's work, extolling the stories as the peak of the ghost story form in his essay "Supernatural Horror in Literature".A collection of stories: Canon Alberic's Scrap-bookLost HeartsThe MezzotintThe Ash TreeNumber 13Count MagnusThe Treasure of Abbot ThomasA School StoryThe Rose GardenThe Stalls of Barchester CathedralThe Diary of Mr. PoynterAn Episode of Cathedral HistoryThe Story of a Disappearance and an AppearanceAn Evening's EntertainmentA Warning to the CuriousA Neighbour's LandmarkThe Uncommon Prayer-bookThe Haunted Dolls' HouseWailing WellThere Was a Man Dwelt by a ChurchyardRatsAfter Dark in the Playing FieldsThe Experiment: a New Year's Eve Ghost StoryThe Malice of Inanimate ObjectsA Vignette
