Book Description
"A YA fantasy classic in the making." - Christine Lynn Herman, author of The Devouring Gray "Fans of Leigh Bardugo’s “Grisha Trilogy” and Marie Rutkoski’s “Winner’s Trilogy” have been waiting for this Darkling-esque romance..." - School Library Journal (Starred Review) New York Times bestselling author Allison Saft’s Down Comes the Night is a snow-drenched romantic fantasy that keeps you racing through the pages long into the night. He saw the darkness in her magic. She saw the magic in his darkness. Wren Southerland’s reckless use of magic has cost her everything: she's been dismissed from the Queen’s Guard and separated from her best friend—the girl she loves. So when a letter arrives from a reclusive lord, asking Wren to come to his estate, Colwick Hall, to cure his servant from a mysterious illness, she seizes her chance to redeem herself. The mansion is crumbling, icy winds haunt the caved-in halls, and her eccentric host forbids her from leaving her room after dark. Worse, Wren’s patient isn’t a servant at all but Hal Cavendish, the infamous Reaper of Vesria and her kingdom’s sworn enemy. Hal also came to Colwick Hall for redemption, but the secrets in the estate may lead to both of their deaths. With sinister forces at work, Wren and Hal realize they’ll have to join together if they have any hope of saving their kingdoms. But as Wren circles closer to the nefarious truth behind Hal’s illness, they realize they have no escape from the monsters within the mansion. All they have is each other, and a startling desire that could be their downfall. Love makes monsters of us all

Book Description
Set in the cities and islands of the Mediterranean, and linked thematically, the eight stories in The Foxes Come at Night read more like a novel, a meditation on memory, life and death. Their protagonists collect and reconstruct fragments of lives lived intensely, and now lost, crystallized in memory or in the detail of a photograph. And yet the tone of these stories is far from pessimistic: it seems that death is nothing to be afraid of.

That is, until he gets handed a ticking bomb of a cold case that only Taleb can solve.

Book Description
Four teenagers. A cottage by the beach. A scary secret kept by the locals. And those who come at night ... A classic teen horror story in a gothic setting told in a modern voice, They Come at Night was originally published in Danish to great reviews, and is now available in English. WHAT THE PRESS SAID "The author confidently builds up the story" Politiken (leading Danish newspaper) "They Come at Night is an effective thrill" Berlingske (national Danish newspaper) "Something horrible happens when the tide comes" Planet Pulp (online magazine) They Come at Night has everything for fans of horror, mystery, thrills and suspense. It''s direct, funny and scary. For fans of The Fog, The Mist, Dead Sea and Lovecraftian tales. Try it instead of watching a cheesy B-movie! EXCERPT The storm whipped cold raindrops into my face, making it hard to see. Lightning was flashing all around me, and the thunder grew louder with each clap. Finally, I saw the lights from the windows. I snuck around the back, and through the window, I saw Chris lying on his bed, playing on his computer. I tapped the glass gently. He turned his head and looked directly at me, his eyes widening. I waved and signaled for him to come and open the window. He got up, but instead of coming to the window, he went to a drawer and took something out. He came over and opened the window ajar. "What do you want?" he asked, giving me a suspicious look. "I just want to talk," I said, pulling up my collar. I was soaked to the bone. "Would you please open it all the way?" "You''re not coming in," Chris said. He leaned forward and looked down at my feet. "And I won''t talk to you before you touch this ..." The thing he had been hiding behind his back was, of course, an anchor. He stuck it out the window. "Sure, no problem." I took the anchor, turning it over. "Satisfied?" He nodded and looked a little bit less uneasy. "Give it back to me, please." I handed him back the anchor, and he opened the window all the way. "Was that some sort of test?" I asked. "Yes," Chris said. "And you passed. I had to be sure you hadn''t become one of them." "Who is ''them''?" I asked. "You have to tell me what you know, Chris. I think we might be in danger." "If you put up the anchor like I told you--" "We didn''t put up the anchor!" I interrupted. Chris''s eyes gleamed with fear. "Tell me what the hell is going on around here!" I demanded. "All right," Chris said. "But keep your voice down." He chewed his lip for a moment. Then, he started talking. "I don''t know when it started. Maybe it has always been like this. But you and your friends chose the worst time to come here. It only happens once a year, and never more than three nights in a row." "What happens?" I whispered. "The tide, of course. It floods the whole area. But I guess you noticed by now. Everyone around here knows about it. We put up plenty of anchors, though, so no harm can come to us." "Who is trying to harm you?" I asked. "Who are they?" Chris was about to answer, when lightning flashed, illuminating everything for a split second. The thunderclap followed immediately. "They are lost souls," he whispered. "They have been cursed to live in the ocean ..."
