Sinopse

A witty, moving tale of monsters and modern life from the award-winning author of Cackle and The Return. For readers looking for a story of sisterhood, complicated families and love with a bit more bite...
Rory Morris isn't thrilled to be moving back to her hometown. There are bad memories there. But her twin sister, Scarlett, is pregnant and needs support, so Rory returns to the place she thought she'd put in her rearview. After a night out at a bar where she runs into Ian, an old almost-flame, she hits a large animal with her car. And when she gets out to investigate, she's attacked.
Rory survives, miraculously, but life begins to look and feel different. She's unnaturally strong, with an aversion to silver—and suddenly the moon has her in its thrall. She's changing into someone else—something else. But does that mean she's putting those close to her in danger? Or is embracing the wildness inside her the key to acceptance?
This darkly comedic love story is a brilliantly layered portrait of trauma, rage, and vulnerability.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Lovecraft's story regarding a tram conductor whose head transforms into tentacles, recorded in a letter dated November 25, 1927, to Donald Wandrei. 
     
    The story is currently considered inauthentic, as it is partially not authored by Lovecraft. The content of two letters, one containing 'The Very Old Folk' and the other with this 'work,' Wandrei sold to the publisher of the magazine 'Scienti-Snaps' (later renamed 'Bizarre'), J. Chapman Miske. He published both texts as stories written by Lovecraft, with the addition of two paragraphs to 'The Thing in the Moonlight': one at the beginning and one at the end.

    Siblings Michael and Ellery Lisbon are desperate for a fresh start. Reeling after a series of misfortunes, the pair settle down in the quiet town of Plum Hollow in the hopes of kick-starting their stalled lives. The house they move into is unbelievably affordable—a seeming gem in a ferociously competitive market. 
     
     
     
    But it was in this house that, two years prior, a family was savagely butchered. Despised by their neighbors, the siblings are left to grapple with the grisly reality of the house's past—and with the possibility that the evil behind the slayings is still present. 
     
     
     
    Jagged shadows leer at their bedsides, watching them sleep. Laughter erupts from unoccupied rooms, and Ellery is plagued by visions of the infamous killings. Gradually, they're being drawn into a nightmare—destined to become the prey of an insatiable horror. 
     
     
     
    Some say the devil lives in Plum Hollow. And they may well be right.

    Sunrise is a collection of interconnected stories continuing Erika Kobayashi's examination of the effects of nuclear power on generations of women. Connecting changes to everyday life to the development of the atomic bomb, Sunrise shows us how the discovery of radioactive power has shaped our history and continues to shape our future. 
     
     
     
    In the opening, eponymous story "Sunrise," Yoko, born exactly two years and one day after Nagasaki was decimated, mirrors her life to the development of nuclear power in Japan. In "Precious Stones," four daughters take their elderly mother to the restorative waters of a radium spring, exchanging tales of immortality. In "Hello My Baby, Hello My Honey," a woman goes into labor during the final days of WWII. And finally, "The Forest of Wild Birds" shows Erika visiting the site of the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant disaster, touring grounds that were once covered in green. 
     
     
     
    Translator Brian Bergstrom returns in this collection, bringing to life Kobayashi's unsettling, lasting, and striking prose. The stories in Sunrise force a reckoning with the lasting effects of known and unknown histories and asks how much of modern life is influenced by forces outside of our control.

    Some houses keep secrets. This house keeps you. 
    Murphy has seen ghosts all her life. Usually, they're harmless. Strange shadows in the corner of a room. Pale figures that vanish when she looks twice. Whispers from the dead that have become little more than background noise. 
    But the First House is different. 
    Inherited from her grandmother after a messy divorce, a devastating loss, and the collapse of the life she thought she wanted, the isolated house on Tasmania's coast seems like the perfect place for Murphy to start over. Better yet, with its notorious history and reputation for being haunted, it could become the ultimate tourist attraction for her new social media presence. Murphy isn't afraid of ghosts. 
    She should be. 
    As she restores the decaying house, Murphy discovers its spirits aren't merely lingering. They're waiting. Teeth click beneath her bed. Rooms conceal impossible spaces. And something ancient moves through the darkness—a presence that has been tied to the house for far longer than anyone remembers.  
    The First House has been keeping its secrets for generations.  
    Now Murphy has come home. 
    And something inside has been waiting for her. 
    "The First House is a terrifying entry into the haunted house genre that rivals the very best. It's scary, it has heart, and it's steeped in historic significance - a combination JJ handles with expert precision, solidifying her status as one of Australia's premier voices in ghost fiction."
