Arriving 14 January from author Patrick Barb and Mad Axe Media, JK-LOL
New from writer TC Parker and Nefarious Bat Press, Tradwife
Everyone remembers the Heart of Solomon murders: three young married couples slaughtered around the dinner table, their bodies desecrated, in the UK’s first and only purpose-built Tradwife community.
And no suspect ever charged.
Writer Gina Lewis wants to know. Her plan: talk to the people who knew the three dead couples best, and try to understand what brought them to the Heart of Solomon. Puzzle out why they died – and how the “traditional marriage” Arcadia they were promised turned so dangerous, so quickly.
And she’ll keep going until she finds the truth. No matter what it costs her. Available now in eBook and paperback editions, you can grab your copy here.
Available now from author C. S. Jones and Grave Disorder Press, Yuletide Offerings
Deep in the woods, a door has been opened.
Hayley and Clara, two young friends, inseparable since nursery, dream of playing with their favourite Disney ice queen. A childish desire that will set in motion a series of events that will prove that things beyond our world are best left well alone, all while pushing the limits of what a parent would actually do to see their child again. Available now in eBook and paperback editions, you can pick up your copy here.
New from editor S. D. Vassallo and Brigids Gate Press, The Horror That Represents You
Fear. Terror. Horror.
Though we all share those emotions, the form of what scares us, terrifies us, gives us nightmares, and defines us, differs from person to person. Some have snakes for pets; others can’t even look at them through a glass barrier. Some move gracefully in high places like acrobats on tightropes; others quiver nervously even standing 20 feet back from a drop-off.
The Horror that Represents You is an exploration of the fear and horror that moves and defines the 24 authors whose stories and poems appear herein. Available now in eBook and paperback editions, you can grab your copy here.
