  In the vein of John MacDonald's Cape Fear, Ahlborn takes the classic stalker tale and updates it for the modern era. 
   
   
   
  The house sits stoic and slightly askew off the coast of Raven's Head. Its off-kilter windows are both charming and disorienting, its walls of overstuffed bookshelves both comforting and claustrophobic. When Leo and Lark Parrish arrive at their vacation home with their parents, their mother's idea of a quintessential Maine getaway seems like both a blessing and a curse. Lark—a novice novelist—can't wait to find inspiration at the end of a fog-entombed pier. And while being trapped in a house with no means of escape is the last thing Leo would consider a good time—especially with parents on the precipice of divorce—he can't help but wonder if maybe the change of scenery will help him shake off the chains of sadness brought on by the death of his closest friend. 
   
   
   
  But what starts off as a relatively benign family trip quickly turns menacing. Leo finds himself face-to-face with what feels like his best friend reaching out from beyond the grave, and only hours after they arrive, Lark begins to receive sinister texts. And then they both see it: someone lurking in the shadows of their rental home. Someone who has been expecting them despite the Parrishes being a thousand miles from home.

  Winner, Crime Writers of Canada Award Of Excellence―Best Crime Novel Set in Canada 2025 
   
  Hugh Mercer has come to a small town in Ontario, far away from his broken career, broken marriage, and broken life in New York. He's expecting to take advantage of what he's sure will be a peaceful place in the middle of winter to begin to make some sense of the situations he's left behind. Before he has a chance to settle into his rented farmhouse, a strange woman appears on his doorstep and makes a startling prediction: Elizabeth Goode, a local, is about to disappear under bizarre circumstances and her life is at risk. Mercer needs further information, but as quickly as she appeared, the stranger is gone. 
   
  Within a few days, Elizabeth Goode does indeed vanish from a café in town and all the witnesses have different accounts of the event. Her life now depends on the skills Mercer honed in the New York Police Department as a homicide detective and the down-to-earth abilities of local police officer Alice Morrow. Together they work to solve the mystery of the disappearance and get to Elizabeth before she is murdered; but they, too, are troubled by their own need for forgiveness, their desire for justice, and their passion for each other.

  The Unnamable

  Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz. 
  "The Unnamable" is a horror short story by American author H. P. Lovecraft. It was written in September 1923, first published in the July 1925 issue of Weird Tales, and first collected in Beyond the Wall of Sleep in 1943. 
  Carter, a weird fiction writer (likely Randolph Carter who features in some of Lovecraft's other tales such as "The Statement of Randolph Carter") meets with his close friend, Joel Manton, in a cemetery near an old, dilapidated house on Meadow Hill in the town of Arkham, Massachusetts. As the two sit upon a weathered tomb, Carter tells Manton the tale of an indescribable entity that allegedly haunts the house and surrounding area. He contends that because such an entity cannot be perceived by the five senses, it becomes impossible to quantify and accurately describe, thus earning itself the term unnamable. 
  As the narration closes, this unnamable presence attacks both Carter and Manton. Both men survive and awaken later at St. Mary's hospital. They suffer from various lacerations, including scarring from a large horn-shaped object and bruises in the shape of hoof-prints on their backs.

  Eighteen tales of horror delve into the world of the horror audio drama Wrought of Amber. 
  PRINCESS EMERALD IS GONE 
  Twelve-year-old actress Emily Carmichael was the star of the children's TV show, Virtue Vista Valley, until she went missing on a Saturday afternoon in 2009. Four days later, police found her remains on the property of Wesley Graveline, one of Virtue Vista Valley's writers. Graveline confessed and was executed, and the case was closed. More than a decade later, Alex Carmichael questioned the official story of her sister's death with her podcast Wrought of Amber and shed light on the unexplored corners of her family's tragic loss. 
  This collection of stories expands the story to dark corners beyond Alex's reach. 
  Set in the world of Wrought of Amber and Weeping Cedars, these eighteen short stories add to Alex's version of events by uncovering secrets she could never know and staring into darkness she could never imagine. Shards of Amber includes the tales of a killer who poses his victims, a model train set that appears mysteriously in an office lobby, an actor who must endure dreams of drowning, and the tale of an aspiring young writer who finds something unexpected in the West Virginia woods. 
  Join the search for Emily Carmichael, but be careful not to cut yourself on the shards.
