Southern Gothic meets slow-burn dread in this genre-bending horror novel where an impulsive outcast must confront his small town's dark secrets.
"Deeply immersive and darkly mysterious. Certain to be one of the year's standout horror reads." ―Craig DiLouie, author of Episode Thirteen Eighteen years ago, an infant Jesse Calloway was found wailing on the bank of a river, his mother dead beside him. The mystery of her death has haunted him all his life, and despite every effort, he has never been able to uncover the truth. Now someone is promising him answers. An anonymous source claims that they'll tell him everything. But only if he returns to the hometown he swore he'd left in the rearview. But in Blacknot, North Carolina, nothing is as it seems. It's a town that buries its secrets deep. Jesse's relentless investigation garners attention from intimidating locals, including his dangerous ex-boyfriend. And he'll soon discover that this backwater town hides a volatile and haunting place on its desolate edge. The Night House is calling. Some secrets are better left buried... "At once elegiac and deeply visceral. A bittersweet ode to all the ways in which a place can haunt us long after we've departed―and transform us when we return." ―Georgia Summers, #1 international bestselling author of The City of Stardust "Julian weaves a dark spell with the bones of southern gothic storytelling and gorgeous prose. To enter this haunted swamp of a novel is to lose yourself in cosmic mystery." ―Andy Marino, author of The Swarm "Drenched in dread and yearning, Red Rabbit Ghost is the kind of Gothic novel that you don't so much read as inhale. I loved it." ―Kelly Link, author of The Book of Love"Sinopsis" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.

Paperback. Condición: Good. A cynical young outcast confronts his small town's dark secrets in this atmospheric and haunting debut horror novel from brilliant new voice Jen Julian. The town of Blacknot is not what it appears, and a place deep in the woods known only as The Night House is calling. Jesse Calloway hadn't planned to return to his repressive, backwoods hometown of Blacknot, North Carolina, after only one year away at college, but an anonymous messenger has lured him home. Eighteen years ago, his mother died under unexplained circumstances. Every story he has heard is incomplete. Now, the messenger claims to have the answers. But Jesse will have to hunt for them. Alice Catherine, the daughter of a local pork manufacturer, obsesses over Jesse in turn. To her, he is a key player in unearthing the dark family history she's convinced her father is concealing. Alice knows Jesse must find the answers himself, with the hope that once he does, he'll help her change both their futures. But Jesse's path to Alice isn't a straight line, and his questions are stirring up issues with locals, including his much older and well-armed ex-boyfriend, Harlan. When an old fling of Jesse's goes missing and Alice's plans start to unravel, it's clear there's more at stake than either of them could imagine. On a collision course littered with psychotropic fungi, time-warping magic, and far too many alligators, Jesse and Alice will need to determine how far they are willing to go for the truth, and whether they can trust each other enough to get there.
