Why are there islanders who seem to follow the family wherever they go? Why do Sandra and the teenage grandchildren have strangely similar dreams? Has Sandra been granted a wish she didn’t know she made? Before their holiday is over, some of the family may learn too much about the secret that keeps the island alive.

Book SynopsisA visionary new horror novel in the style of Wells' creepiest and most enduring fictions - a future history following the descendants of the Island of Dr Moreau In H G Wells' The Island of Dr Moreau a shipwrecked traveller finds himself alone on an island ruled by a mad doctor and inhabited by creatures who are at once both beast and human. He escapes...but that is only the beginning of the story. The City of Dr Moreau is a sprawling history of the islanders, and an alternative vision of our own times. Spanning more than a century, criss-crossing across numerous places and many lives, we witness the growth of Moreau's legacy, from gothic experiments to an event which changes the world. From the wharves of Victorian London to a boarding house with an inhuman resident to an assassin on a twentieth-century train ordered to kill the one man who knows the truth, we follow secret skirmishes and hidden plots which emerge, eventually and violently, into the open.Trade Review"Barnes takes some hints from the original book, recreating the “Moreau Horrors” episode that Wells mentions in passing and giving a cameo role to his protagonist, Prendick... The City of Dr Moreau rattles along agreeably and has more than enough twists to hold the attention."— Times Literary Supplement"The plot is packed with incident and charcters, skipping from one vignette to the next like a flat stone thrown across a lake. The extrapolation of Well’s idea is exemplary...Barnes both updates and innovates."— Financial Times"An epic ‘what if…?’ that significantly expands Wells’ cautionary tale about genetic engineering, taking it to exciting new places." — Sci-Fi BulletinOn Dracula's Child:"A modern Gothic masterpiece, and one of the finest vampire novels of recent years. A perfect companion piece to one of the most pivotal novels ever written" Ginger Nuts of Horror'A boldly inventive sequel to Dracula rips along with a sustained energy and verve, twisting and turning all the way to the supposed editor’s epilogue' Times Literary Supplement“In style, story content, and characterization, Dracula’s Child is truly the sequel to Bram Stoker’s Dracula, succeeding where other, more famous attempts failed” New York Journal of Books“Inventive and spooky” Mark Gatiss, co-creator of the hit BBC series Dracula and Sherlock'[A] fitting tribute to Bram Stoker’s Dracula, matching the original’s tone and epistolary form with this choice sequel set slightly over a decade after the original’s conclusion. . . Barnes’s modern sensibilities shine through, the action and intrigue delight. This adventurous and dread-inducing tale will have readers hooked' Publishers Weekly“[A] thorough tribute to Bram Stoker’s original, written in the style of Stoker’s prose and imagining a continuation of the story this is a must-read for Dracula fans” Den of Geek"This epic tale of madness, temptation, and political scandal set in early-twentieth-century England strikes a resonant chord with today’s political climate" Booklist 'A patchwork of dark thrills, woven skilfully from new and familiar voices - Dracula's Child is a macabre delight' Aliya Whiteley, author of The Beauty"It's a monumental achievement. The tale is engrossing, the tone is spot-on." Stephen Gallagher, author (The Authentic William James) and TV writer (Doctor Who)"Fiendishly plotted and full of sinister invention . . . a thoroughly modern re-imagining of the Count's undying menace" Richard T Kelly, author of The Knives and The Possessions of Doctor Forest"Gave me genuine chills and put J.S. Barnes on my list of go-to authors" British Fantasy Society"Bram Stoker’s classic continues… It’s just as dark, evocative, sensual, and horrific. A masterpiece" Horror Tree“J.S. Barnes’ sequel to Bram Stoker’s horror classic is a terrific read...I’ve not hung on to a book so tightly for many years, its grip so intense that it wouldn’t let me go. At the end you take a deep breath and wonder where that time went, albeit time very well spent" Sci-Fi Bulletin“Genuinely frightening...There are striking moments of originality, where Barnes seamlessly merges modern sensibilities with a Stoker-like writing style...Immense fun and after decades of parody- manages to make the Count scary again" FrightFest

Book SynopsisFrom the Emmy Award-winning writer of Avenue 5, Veep and The Thick of It comes a funny, violent and thought-provoking horror story like nothing you've seen before. Ricky Smart is a nobody, a Miami Beach paparazzo who scrapes a living snapping celebs. One day Ricky wakes up and realises there's something wrong with his hand. It's not his hand. In fact, it's someone else's hand. How does he know it's not his? Because it looks different, feels different and - perhaps the biggest clue - has a four-letter word tattooed across the knuckles. But hey, it's still a hand, and it works just fine, so that's ok. Except a week later, his other hand changes. And a few days after that, Ricky gets a new arm... Ricky is losing his mind as well as his body parts, but he has to pay rent and those seedy photos aren't going to take themselves. The world needs candid shots of pop sensation and local girl Scala Jaq, almost as much as Ricky's bank account does. Yet Scala has a secret of her own, a secret that leads them to an unlikely partnership, the strangest support group ever, and revelations that threaten existence as they know it. It's up to the celebrity and her tormentor to work out what to do with a world of misfits, explosions, and other people's bad tattoos. Because when you've looked for redemption in all the right places, you might need to try the wrong ones.

Five terrifying collected horror novellas newly reissued from the "modern-day Algernon Blackwood". Skullbelly A private detective is hired after three teenagers disappear in a forest and uncovers a terrible local secret. The Separation Marcus arrives in Germany to find his friend up-and-coming prizefighter Charlie in a deep depression. But soon Charlie's behavior grows increasingly bizarre. Is he suffering from a nervous breakdown, or are otherworldly forces at work? The Stranger Set a rural Florida parking lot, David returns to his car to find a stranger sat behind the wheel. The doors are locked and there's a gun on the dashboard. And that was when then the insanity started... After the Fade A girl walked into a small Annapolis tavern, collapsed and died. Something had latched itself to the base of her skull. And it didn't arrive alone. Now, the patrons of The Fulcrum are trapped, held prisoner within the tavern's walls by monstrous things, trying to find their way in. And one more novella to be revealed!Trade ReviewPraise for Ghostwritten: "It's no coincidence that there are four chambers to the human heart and Ronald Malfi's 'Ghostwritten', both bound by muscle and full of blood, but once this quartet of nightmarish novellas gets pumping, your own ticker is sure to stop." Clay McLeod Chapman, author of 'Whisper Down the Lane' "Malfi makes reading about the perils of reading a terrifying delight." Publishers Weekly, Starred Review "A terrific horror novelist and his edge is just as sharp at novella length fiction also... beautifully crafted and a pleasure to read" Ginger Nuts of Horror "Malfi makes horror feel viscerally real by showing it to us through the eyes of his vividly described characters-if they are frightened, apprehensive, or just confused, so are we." Booklist Praise for 'Black Mouth': "Stunningly good, with echoes of King, Bradbury, Straub, and McCammon, but somehow purely Malfi. Full of malevolence and dread, and peopled by truly compelling characters, the book locks in Malfi's place as one of the best writers in the genre." Christopher Golden, 'New York Times' bestselling author of 'Road of BONES' and 'Ararat' "'Black Mouth' is good magic about dark magic: a powerful meeting between adulthood and childhood, the people we pretend to be and the people we have to be. Smart, character-driven horror." Andrew Pyper, author of 'The Residence' and 'The Demonologist' "Malfi has established himself as one of the all-time great horror writers, and 'Black Mouth' shows him working at the peak of his dark powers. Equally terrifying and heartbreaking, 'Black Mouth' is a book filled with terror, ghosts, and murder, but also hauntings of the heart, and the soul. Riveting, bloody, and cosmic, this novel will tear you apart in all the best ways." Philip Fracassi, author of 'Beneath a Pale Sky' "Malfi, like Stephen King and Stephen Graham Jones, tells horror stories that are anchored in the real world. His characters, like theirs, are ordinary people caught up in extraordinary events. He earns his screams and shudders honestly, through good writing and careful plotting: there are no B-movie jump scares here, just an increasing sense of dread that erupts into blood-chilling horror. Don't miss this one." 'Booklist' "The well-done cosmic horror and mix of mundane and magical scares make this a standout." 'Publishers Weekly' "From one of horror's best storytellers... If you're looking for a good, unsettling, smart and well-written horror novel, 'Black Mouth' should certainly be on your short list. This is doubly true if you enjoyed Stephen King's 'IT'." 'Eggplante' "Expertly crafted and thoroughly engrossing, Black Mouth is a sure-fire contender for the book of 2022." Bloody Flicks Praise for Come with Me: Malfi is a modern-day Algernon Blackwood... I'm gonna be talking about this book for years JOSH MALERMAN, author of Bird Box This is what it is to be transported: you might think you're on solid ground, but Come with Me is a story that will carry you, inescapably, into the uncanny, the horrific. Andrew Pyper, author of The Residence Part mystery, part ghost story, Come with Me chimes with rare beauty and page-turning brilliance. I surrendered to it completely. Rio Youers, author of Lola on Fire A must-read for fans of Stephen King. Come with Me is so damn good, truly chilling and suspenseful, yet also hauntingly nuanced Christopher Golden, author of Ararat Come with Me is Malfi's masterwork - a haunting, heart-breaking novel about grief and secrets. Utterly engrossing and terrifying. Highly recommended! Brian Keene, author of The Rising Shines as both a nightmare journey of shadows and secrets, and a poignant testimony to love and loss. I read it in a single day because I had no other choice: it's that damn good. Richard Chizmar, author of Gwendy's Button Box Malfi impresses in this taut, supernaturally tinged mystery... and sticks the landing with a powerful denouement. There's plenty here to enjoy. Publishers Weekly Malfi artfully fits the reader's head in a noose and s-l-o-w-l-y begins to take out the slack. Take a deep breath. You'll need the oxygen The Day
