THEY HIDE: Short Stories to Tell in the dark debuted at #1
Who are we if not for the monsters that we keep?
They Hide: Short Stories to Tell in the Dark collects thirteen chilling tales that weave through the shadows, exploring the nature of fear, powerlessness, and control.
- A series of murders in a New England colony
- An untamed beast in pre-revolutionary France
- A mysterious stranger who invades 18th-century Ireland
- A traveling circus that takes more than the price of admission
- A gathering of the Dark, telling tales on the longest night of the year, and more.
Come play with vampires, werewolves, ghosts, zombies, ghouls and the devil himself. Make sure you check under the bed and don’t turn out the lights.

I was so floored to see my book next to the likes of Stephen King and Margaret Atwood. At one point on launch day, THEY HIDE was one book away from these legends. So now, I can say, I was Stephen King and Margaret Atwood 'adjacent'.
