  Title: The Squaw 
  Series Name: Timeless Terrors 
  Series Entry: 116 
  Author: Bram Stoker 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1893 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Description: 
  The Squaw is a chilling tale of cruelty, revenge, and relentless supernatural justice set against the haunting backdrop of medieval Germany. 
  The story follows an arrogant and thoughtless American tourist traveling through Nuremberg with his fiancée and their companion. What begins as a lighthearted journey through ancient castles and historic sites quickly darkens after a senseless act of brutality sparks consequences far beyond human reckoning. Within the looming shadows of the old fortress and its grim devices of punishment, an unseen force begins to close in — patient, watchful, and merciless. 
  In this unsettling narrative, Bram Stoker explores themes of karmic retribution, the abuse of innocence, and the thin boundary between coincidence and curse. As dread tightens its grip, the atmosphere grows heavy with inevitability, culminating in a finale both shocking and grimly poetic. 
  Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance heightens the mounting tension, gothic atmosphere, and grim sense of justice that make The Squaw a stark and unforgettable entry in Stoker’s dark fiction.

  * SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2024 INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE * 
   
   
   
  It's not a river, it's this river. 
   
   
   
  A hot, motionless afternoon. Enero and El Negro are fishing with Tilo, their dead friend's teenage son. After hours of struggling with a hooked stingray, Enero aims his revolver into the water and shoots it. They hang the ray's enormous corpse from a tree at their campsite and let it go to rot, drawing the attention of some local islanders and igniting a long-simmering fury toward outsiders and their carelessness. It's only the two sisters—the teenage nieces of one of the locals, Aguirre—with their hair black as cowbird feathers and giving off the scent of green grass, who are curious about the trio and invite them to a dance. But the girls are not quite as they seem. As night approaches and tensions rise, Enero and El Negro return to the charged memories of their friend who years ago drowned in this same river. 
   
   
   
  As uneasy and saturated as a prophetic dream, Not a River is another extraordinary novel by Selva Almada about masculinity, guilt, and irrepressible desire, written in a style that is spare and timeless.

  Residents had long forgotten the shocking events of the summer of 1972. Until someone moved into Old Lady Ketchel’s derelict home on 33 Tailings Way. 
  It had been 25 years since Old Lady Ketchel’s reign of terror ended, and the Slaughter family and empire met its fiery end. Enough time for residents to purge the town of the Slaughter monarchy, and any vestige of the family’s past influence or existence. Or so they thought. Little did they know that Enoch Slaughter, Jr. had fathered a baby boy with a teenage stripper just before his demise. 
  Then there was Karen Garber and her baby Loralei, thought to be the product of her marriage to Enoch Slaughter IV. However, Karen knew the truth, which she took with her when she and Loralei fled Slaughter for greener pastures. But now, Loralei was a young adult with questions about the identity of her birth father. Something her mother vowed never to divulge. 
  So when Loralei returned to what used to be Slaughter and moved into the ramshackle eyesore that had been Old Lady Ketchel’s home, residents became nervous. It had stood vacant and neglected for a quarter of a century. Not because the townspeople hadn’t thought to bulldoze it and create a nice, quiet green space. It’s just that every time a demolition crew stepped foot onto the property, some tragedy would befall them. Eventually, they gave up trying to rid the town of the one last remnant from Slaughter’s tumultuous past. 
  Why had Loralei moved back to town and into Old Lady Ketchel’s house? Would she come to some misfortune, like the demolition crews? Or was her distant connection to the town’s chaotic past a harbinger of calamities to come? 
  Loralei’s Siren Song is a sequel to the Slaughter Minnesota horror series. Just when you thought the chaos was over!

  We think we understand the laws of physics. 
   
   
   
  We think a lot of things. It was perhaps inevitable that some of them would turn out to be wrong. 
   
   
   
  When the great incursion occurred, no one was prepared. Of all the things physicists had predicted, "the fabric of reality might rip open and giant monsters could come pouring through" had not made the list. But somehow, that was precisely what happened. 
   
   
   
  For sisters Susan and Katharine Black, the day of the incursion was the day they lost everything. Their home, their parents, their sense of normalcy . . . and each other, because when the rift opened, each sister was stranded in a separate form of reality. For Susan, it was science and study and the struggle to solve the mystery of the altered physics inside the zones transformed by the incursion. For Katharine, it was monsters and mayhem and the fight to stay alive in a world unlike the world of her birth. 
   
   
   
  The world has changed. The laws of physics have changed. The girls have changed. And the one universal truth of all states of changed matter is that nothing can be completely restored to what it was originally, no matter how much you might wish it could be. 
   
   
   
  Nothing goes back.
