In 1982, two teenagers-serial killer survivor Emma Lewis and US
Marshal candidate Travis Bell-are recruited by the FBI to interview
convicted juvenile killers and provide insight and advice on cold
cases. From the start, Emma and Travis develop a quick friendship,
gaining information from juvenile murderers that even the FBI can't
crack. But when the team is called in to give advice on an active
case-a serial killer who exclusively hunts teenagers-things begin
to unravel. Working against the clock, they must turn to one of the
country's most notorious incarcerated murderers for help: teenage
sociopath Simon Gutmunsson. Despite Travis's objections, Emma
becomes the conduit between Simon and the FBI team. But while Simon
seems to be giving them the information they need to save lives,
he's an expert manipulator playing a very long game...and he has
his sights set on Emma. Captivating, harrowing, and chilling, None
Shall Sleep is an all-too-timely exploration of not only the
monsters that live among us, but also the monsters that live inside
us.
"You are deluded, Romeo. Vampires do not have the capability to
love. They are heartless."

undead enemies. But at the end of the day, their blood feud is
unstoppable. So it's really quite a problem when Juliet, a
vampire-to-be, and Romeo, the human who should be hunting her, fall
desperately in love. What they don't realize is how deadly their

afterlives. . . .
This riotous twist on the ultimate tale of forbidden romance is
simply to die for.
Quick! Things have gone wrong - very wrong... You're facing the
night of the zombies and you don't know where to turn... Game over.
Don't let this be you. Be prepared. Read this life-saving book and
be ready for whatever comes your way... or else.

Video games have never been more murderous. Veronica wakes up
trapped with four strangers in a sprawling manor house in a snow
storm with a dead body, a mystery right out of an Agatha Christie
novel. It feels so real - but it isn't. This is VR and this is THE
Game; a rumoured Easter Egg hidden in other VR games that draws you
into a competition for a prize beyond your wildest dreams. And
there's no escaping the VR world until the Game is won. But while
Veronica and her fellow players are trying to figure out the
puzzle, something is not right in the VR world. Blackouts,
glitches, NPCs acting strange, and a mysterious figure haunting
their footsteps. Then when a player dies, and also dies in real
life, all hell breaks loose. Without warning, the game Veronica
thought she was playing gets overshadowed by a much darker, and
much more real, mystery: who is killing us?' It may not be a game
Veronica wanted to play, but it's one that she has to win - or die
trying.

And when one of your own, Annie, goes missing, a typical Great Winter Academy curse turns into a life-or-death rescue mission. Did someone at Old Willow abduct, or worse, murder Annie? Has another student learned your secret and flipped the script? What if you’re the ones now being hunted?
Deadknobs And Doomsticks is a collection of twelve illustrated
short horror stories. Ranging from the darkly bizarre to the
horrifically surreal, many of the stories are laced with a theme of
bullying and bullies. Dark undertones and malevolent overtones
interweave with characters and situations that pull the reader to
the edge of their seat. Wit and black humour is prevalent through
the stories, each with a delicious payoff for the reader. Joe
Pasquale shows that where there is laughter there is also a dark
and disturbing voice that is drawn to the horror genre to find its
release. With illustrations by the author, this collection shows a
rich depth of talent as an artist and author. Joe shows he has as
unique a voice in the world of horror writing, as it is in comedy.
