What to expect

'Reminiscent of Stephen King from the outset!' Sam Holland

'Felt like a nightmare created specifically for people who love horror novels!' Reader review, ★★★★★

'Tears the roof off the haunted house genre.' T.J. PAYNE

Some stories should stay unfinished.

Whistler Dodd is dead. The acclaimed horror author is survived only by his final, unfinished, manuscript.

Kirk Quade has the opportunity of a lifetime. The struggling author must finish writing the book if he wants to receive a two-book deal with Dodd’s publisher.

There’s just one rule: if Dodd turns up, don’t let him finish the novel. Sequestered in the dead author's house, Kirk is determined to prove himself. But as he delves into Dodd's haunting world, he uncovers more than just words on a page.

The monsters lurking in the shadows are very real – and they’re hungry. Time is running out and Kirk must choose between achieving everything he’s ever dreamed of, or saving his sanity – and the world.

Stranger Things meets Misery in this twisted cosmic horror.
