Out today from Crystal Lake Publishing and author Per Counsel, We Have Been Advised Not To Say That Name In This Space: getbook.at/TheHeadlessBoy
A novel similar to suspenseful classics like The Haunting of Hill House, The Woman in Black, and Bag of Bones.
Reeling from the loss of a child, Maggie finds her job at the local daycare unbearable and errands around town impossible. She knows every child, every single parent, and they're all reminders of what she's lost. Unable to heal, she sinks further into the grip of grief and depression.
Jake is a good guy, a great husband, and wants only the best for his broken wife. Therapy and medications aren't helping, and a change of scenery makes perfect sense. A new home. A fresh start. He is nothing but patient, giving Maggie the space and emotional support needed to move on.
But once they've settled in, Maggie offers him an alternative. And though Jake doesn't believe in ghosts, he plays along with the charade in the name of helping his wife. Until he discovers it's not a game.
They are not alone.
As the subtle activity grows violent, Jakes realizes the thing in their house has chosen Maggie as a surrogate mother, and it does not want a father figure. Jake and Maggie's fresh start has become a battlefield, and he's no longer sure which side his wife is on.
Does Jake have the strength to save them both?
This ghost thriller is perfect for fans of Shirley Jackson, Jack Ketchum, T.E.D. Klein, and Bentley Little.
