'They didn't see the house until they were practically on top of
it. A single building emerging fromthe dark. It didn't look
welcoming. But the front door was open. The door was wide open.'
Irongrove Lodge - a building with history; the very bricks and
grounds imbued with the stories of those who have walked these
corridors, lived in these rooms. These are the tales of an
extraordinary house, a place that straddles our world and whatever
lies beyond; a place that some are desperate to discover, and
others to flee. At one time an asylum, at another a care home,
sometimes simply a home. The residents of Irongrove Lodge will
learn that this house will change them, that the stories told here
never go away. Of all who enter, only some will leave.
Multi-award-winning editor Jonathan Oliver has brought together
five extraordinary writers to open the doors, revealing ghosts both
past and present in a collection as intriguing as it is terrifying.
Along with a linking narrative, this collection features five
novellas by Nina Allan, Tade Thompson, K. J. Parker, Robert
Shearman and Sarah Lotz.

fourth is Pamela May Donald, who lives just long enough to record a
voice message on her phone. A message that will change the world.
The message is a warning.

made headlines around the world, THE THREE - perfect for fans of

help. But everyone is certain that rescue teams will come looking
for them soon. All they have to do is wait. That is, until the
toilets stop working and the food begins to run out. When the body
of a woman is discovered in her cabin the passengers start to
panic. There's a murderer on board the Beautiful Dreamer... and
maybe something worse.
