  The undead still carry memories of the past: a phone, a wallet of family photos, an ID. After a ravaging plague has turned humanity into a race of flesh-eating monsters, remembering these victims as people falls on one man—a grieving, hopeless survivor who feels called to collect these artifacts. 
  Years of living in solitude grind away until Viktor discovers the ID of a woman whose photo doesn't match the corpse that carried it. Imagining that she may still be alive, he conjures a plan to track her down by traveling thousands of miles to foster the only thing more dangerous than the dead: HOPE. 
  On this mission he’ll face hordes of the infected, the horrific beast that sparked the outbreak, and an old foe from the past from whom he barely escaped with his own life.

  Whispers of the Sealed 
  The Village That Wasn’t on Any Map 
  In a forgotten village wrapped in fog and secrecy, the bells ring for no one—but the echoes awaken those who should have stayed sealed. 
  When Elias stumbles into a town that appears in no records, he discovers the remnants of an ancient society that once sealed away demons—not with chains, but with symbols, stories, and sacrifice. Each chapter in his unravelling becomes a whispered truth, each relic a vessel for something that still breathes just beneath reality. 
  From Agnes Corrow’s ghostly lullabies to the masks that change their wearers, and a mirror that remembers more than it reflects—this psychological horror dives into generational madness, folklore, and the cost of knowing too much. As the seals begin to break, so does the boundary between Elias and the voices trying to finish what was started long ago. 
  Drenched in atmosphere and written in shifting perspectives, this Gothic horror is for those who love: 
  • Haunting symbols and secret societies 
  • Demons that whisper rather than scream 
  • Fragmented truths and dreamlike storytelling 
  • Lore-heavy psychological unravelling 
  The seals were never meant to last. And some reflections should never return.

  Edgar Award Finalist: The hunt for a vanished singer leads a detective into the depths of the occult in this "terrific" novel (Stephen King). 
   
   
   
  Big-band frontman Johnny Favorite was singing for the troops when a Luftwaffe fighter squadron strafed the bandstand, killing the crowd and leaving the singer near death. The army returned him to a private hospital in upstate New York, leaving him to live out his days as a vegetable while the world forgot him. But Louis Cyphre never forgets. Cyphre had a contract with the singer, stipulating payment upon Johnny's death—payment that will be denied as long as Johnny clings to life. When Cyphre hires private investigator Harry Angel to find Johnny at the hospital, Angel learns that the singer has disappeared. It is no ordinary missing-person's case. Everyone he questions dies soon after, as Angel's investigation ensnares him in a bizarre tangle of black magic, carnival freaks, and grisly voodoo. When the sinister Louis Cyphre begins appearing in Angel's dreams, the detective fears for his life, his sanity, and his soul.
