Step into a realm of cosmic horror and decadent madness where a fictional play induces insanity in all who read it. This seminal collection of short stories introduces a mythology of yellow signs, pallid masks, and the terrifying city of Carcosa, influencing generations of weird fiction writers. The prose is lush and dreamlike, creating an atmosphere of dread that suggests a reality unraveling at the seams. It is a masterpiece of the supernatural that explores the danger of forbidden knowledge and the fragility of the human mind.

    The Mass of Shadows

    On a winter night in a quiet French town, a devout woman rises before dawn to attend the early Mass—only to find the church filled with worshippers who do not belong to the living world. 
    In The Mass of Shadows, Anatole France weaves a solemn and haunting tale of love, memory, and the fragile boundary between life and death. Through the voice of a sacristan recalling his father’s stories, we enter a world where the dead return not in terror, but in reverence—souls bound by affection, regret, and unfinished devotion. Once a year, they are granted a single hour to reunite with those they loved, gathering silently in their parish church to attend a Mass said not for the living, but for memory itself. 
    Both tender and unsettling, this philosophical ghost story reflects on love that endures beyond mortality, the quiet weight of sin and forgiveness, and the human longing to return to what once mattered most. France’s prose is restrained, lyrical, and deeply atmospheric, offering a meditation on faith and affection rather than fear. 
    Narrated with gravity and nuance by Michael Lyons, The Mass of Shadows is a timeless classic of supernatural literature—reverent, melancholic, and quietly unforgettable.

    WHEN THE STARS ALIGN, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. 
     
    On stage at an awards banquet is the last place Lexi Cole expected to drown. But as she accepts the award for top seller at her realty firm, something unusual catches Lexi’s eye: a man surrounded by a dark haze. Then she hears a woman screaming for help, and the taste of salt water overwhelms her. Just as Lexi’s throat begins to close, the man leaves the room and the sensation of drowning abruptly stops. Later that night, the man dies of an overdose, and Lexi learns about the traumatic boating accident that killed his sons and tore his family apart. 
     
    Lexi wants to believe it’s a bizarre coincidence. Any other explanation would disrupt the normal, comfortable life she’s worked so hard to build. Lexi is an expert at denial, a pro at fitting in. But as more strange events unfold, Lexi can’t deny the truth: something is changing inside her. She feels other people’s emotions, sometimes even glimpses their private memories. 
     
    By embracing her new abilities, Lexi can help heal people—though not until she confronts the past she’s spent a lifetime burying. But when a vision reveals her husband is in danger, Lexi must decide: face her inner demons or lose the person she loves most. 
     
    Atmospheric and emotional, Everything We Never Knew is the gripping story of one woman embracing her power, no matter what the world thinks. 
     
    “At one point in our lives we are all challenged to leave behind the person we are expected to be and become who we truly are.

    "A FINELY CRAFTED SUPERNATURAL CRIME THRILLER... WITH RAZOR SHARP PROSE AND A BRISTLING ATMOSPHERE." -The BookLife Prize 
    A missing girl whose bloodline traces back to the Salem Witch Trials is the perfect prize for a demonic cult operating on the fringes of Salem’s witchcraft underground. 
    Desperate to find his missing niece, a Boston police captain loans his best detective, Ray Hanley, to Salem PD to lead the investigation. But tensions flare when Ray is partnered with Elena Martinez, a rookie detective who resents his intrusion on her first big case. 
    As they navigate a treacherous landscape of occult rituals and black magic, the horrific discovery of additional victims deepens the mystery and hints at a more sinister plot… one involving a powerful enemy whose secrets include ancestral ties, malevolent forces, and the fulfillment of a dark prophecy. 
    As the days count down to Halloween, the race is on to stop an unspeakable evil from plunging Salem into eternal darkness. 
    A National Indie Excellence Awards Finalist for Horror 
    From the award-winning author of THE ART OF DYING 
    Although THE BURYING POINT picks up where THE ART OF DYING leaves off, it follows Detective Ray Hanley on a completely new case that can be read as a standalone novel. 
    “An unpredictable blend of crime and horror… The Burying Point grabs from the first pages with crisp, focused prose and dialogue-driven scenecraft.” –BookLife Reviews (Editor’s Pick) 
    “A brilliant and unmissable dance with the devil. Salem witch lore has rarely been as terrifying as it is in The Burying Point.” –Bestthrillers.com 
    “[Cavignano’s] fictionalized version of Salem makes for a wonderfully spooky backdrop… An effectively atmospheric crime novel that pits no-nonsense cops against wicked Massachusetts magic.” –Kirkus Reviews

    "Oh great, more paperwork!" moaned a man in a blue top hat and tux in a mask. He was known as Blue Midnight, a superhero. His son hit him on the back and laughed. "You love paperwork what are you worried about," said his son laughing. 
    "Get out of my hair boy," Blake snapped at his son Lance who was dress similarly in blue. 
    "You'd think you didn't love me," said his son sarcastically. 
    "Not now I'm on a case Enchanter," Blake then said accusingly "The Necromancer Murdered another person." 
    "Oh, that is terrible! Did I know them?" Lance asked. 
    "You tell me! We can't id them. We are going to have to do DNA tests and tooth tests, not much left of them," Blake said disgustedly. 
    "That bad eh!" Lance said sadly. 
    "That's not the only one, he struck again yesterday," Blake said. 
    Lance lost the sarcastic manner he had. He looked shocked. 
    "The other murder wasn't him someone framed him! He's innocent as a lamb," Lance said. 
    “I could never call him a lamb, he's a wolf,” Blake said.
