Ein Meisterwerk des psychologischen Schreckens. A Head Full of Ghosts schildert auf mehreren Zeit- und Personenebenen die Erlebnisse der 14-jährigen Marjorie. Als sie Anzeichen einer Geisteskrankheit zeigt, gipfelt die Hilflosigkeit ihrer Familie und der Ärzte in einem Exorzismus, der als Show live im TV ausgeschlachtet wird. Jahre später gibt Merry, die jüngere Schwester von Marjorie, ein Interview und spricht über die tragischen und unheimlichen Geschehnisse, die seither zur urbanen Legende wurden. Stephen King: 'A Head Full of Ghosts hat mir höllisch Angst gemacht, und so leicht erschreckt man mich nicht.' Stewart O'Nan: 'Verstand verwirrend unheimlich, krank und traurig.'

Set against the backdrop of a notorious 1993 art-house horror film, the story follows the sole surviving cast member as he confronts dark memories while preparing for a big-budget reboot.

Narcoleptic Southie PI Mark Genevich returns in this sequel to The Little Sleep from the Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Survivor Song and The Cabin at the End of the World. Like most private eyes, Mark Genevich is something of a lone wolf. So group therapy isn't a great fit. But his landlord/mother is convinced it will help his narcolepsy--ignoring the fact that his disorder is a physical condition. Truth is, he has the time. It's been a year and a half since his last big case, or any case. It's never a wise choice to go on a two-day bender with someone you meet in group therapy, but there's something about Gus that intrigues Genevich. And when his new drinking buddy asks him to protect a female friend who's being stalked, the PI finally has a case. Unfortunately, he's about to sleepwalk right into a very real nightmare. Before long he's a suspect in an arson investigation and running afoul of everyone from the cops to a litigious lawyer and a bouncer with anger management issues. Genevich must keep his wits about him--always a challenge for a detective prone to unexpected blackouts and hallucinations--to solve the crime and live to show up at his next therapy session. In Paul Tremblay's follow-up to The Little Sleep, unreliable narrator Mark Genevich once again leads readers on a surreal and suspenseful wild ride through the mean streets of South Boston and his own dreamlike reality.

"In a matter of weeks, Massachusetts has been overrun by an insidious virus that is spread by saliva. Those infected--both animals and humans--quickly lose their minds and are driven to bite and infect as many others as they can before they die ... or are killed. Emergency protocols are faltering, rations are being distributed, and the commonwealth is under quarantine and curfew to try to limit the spread of the new virus. Hospitals are inundated with the sick, and hysteria has taken hold. Dr. Ramola "Rams" Sherman receives a frantic phone call from Natalie, her best friend from college who is due to give birth in a matter of days. Natalie's husband has been killed--viciously attacked by an infected neighbor--and in a failed attempt to save him, Nats, too, was bitten. Her only chance of survival is to get to a hospital as quickly as possible to receive a rabies vaccine--and to deliver her child. The clock is ticking for Nats and the baby. The fight to save their lives becomes a desperate odyssey as these friends make their way through a hostile landscape filled with unexpected dangers beyond their worst nightmares. But even if Nats gets the vaccine, will it be too late?"-- Provided by publisher

'Crackling with dark energy and postmodern wit...[this] superb novel evokes the very best in the tradition-from Shirley Jackson to Mark Z. Danielewski and Marisha Pessl-while also feeling fresh and utterly new. Deeply funny and intensely terrifying, it's a sensory rollercoaster and not to be missed.' Megan Abbott, author of The Fever and Dare Me
