Sinossi

This narrative unfolds in London, where a young improvisational musician battles debilitating depression. Traditional medicine fails, leading her to a mystical encounter with Raffello Cellini, an Italian painter with a secret. His elixir induces vivid visions, easing her neurasthenia. Directed to Paris, she meets Heliobas, an enigmatic Chaldean Christian with extraordinary abilities. Alongside Zara, a sculptor, and Prince Ivan, the tale weaves a tapestry of mystical friendships, unrequited love, and the pursuit of inner healing against a backdrop of artistic and spiritual exploration.

    Under a Watchful Eye by Adam Nevill is a supernatural thriller from the award-winning writer of The Ritual and Last Days.Seb Logan is being watched. He just doesn't know by whom. When the sudden appearance of a dark figure shatters his idyllic coastal life, he soon realizes that the murky past he thought he'd left behind has far from forgotten him. What's more unsettling is the strange atmosphere that engulfs him at every sighting, plunging his mind into a terrifying paranoia. To be a victim without knowing the tormentor. To be despised without knowing the offence caused. To be seen by what nobody else can see. These are the thoughts which plague his every waking moment. Imprisoned by despair, Seb fears his stalker is not working alone, but rather is involved in a wider conspiracy that threatens everything he has worked for. For there are doors in this world that open into unknown places. Places used by the worst kind of people to achieve their own ends. And once his investigation leads him to stray across the line and into mortal danger, he risks becoming another fatality in a long line of victims . . .

    From the author who brought us the distinguished spy thriller Death of a Marionette and The Towering Inferno, one of the most popular films of the '70s, comes Waiting, an intense novel of contemporary menace, in the mode of Robinson's 1950s classic, The Power. There are people living among us, who look just like normal human beings. They've been here for a long time--waiting. But they aren't exactly like us at all. Some of them can read minds, and in subtle ways take over what your are thinking, control you for a while.They can make you love. They can make you die.One ordinary man in San Francisco, Arthur Banks, begins to find them out, and immediately his life and his family are in danger. It's a paranoid's worst nightmare. But that's just where it starts. He may well be fighting for the survival of the entire human race."I've always maintained that Frank M. Robinson's The Power was one of the best terror tales ever told. Waiting is even better, rich with character, suspense and constant surprise. This is one of the best chillers of the entire decade. It is guaranteed to give you nightmares. Reading this book was a pure pleasure."--Mystery SceneAt the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

    My family, the Whitlows, are basically the supernatural Corleones of the Carolinas. We run a magical safe house disguised as a quaint inn, backed by more old money than sense. My sisters are more likely to start an apocalypse than prevent one—Alafair's never met a margarita she didn't like, and if Emmery had to choose between her spellbook and her heels, I'm pretty sure the stiletto sling-backs would win. 
     
     
     
    So who gets stuck with the messes? That would be me, Tula Whitlow, because I'm competent enough to be useful and way too lazy to argue. 
     
     
     
    I'm not the most powerful witch in town (that'd be my aunt Ruby, who treats dark magic like a contact sport), but I'm the only one who bothers to show up. 
     
     
     
    Now there's an FBI agent on my doorstep with a case that's way above my pay grade. His sister's life is on the line, and all signs point to an upscale vineyard with some dark secrets. Ancient curses, old gods, and the kind of magic that makes even my aunt Ruby nervous. I'm going to have to wrangle my family into helping. 
     
     
     
    Look, I know what you're thinking—why not call in the magical equivalent of SWAT? Trust me, in this town, my family IS the nuclear option. Heaven help us all.

    A haunting gothic thriller about legacy, grief, and the haunted echoes of family secrets. 
    Some inheritances should be left to the dead. 
    Blair Graves doesn’t believe in ghosts—she grew up watching her father chase them for a living. His disappearance years ago was just one more reason to write off the supernatural as nonsense. 
    After selling her family’s estate to cover her brother’s gambling debts, Blair sinks what’s left of her savings into a crumbling mansion known as Solomon House, hoping the project will fill the void left by loss and regret. But as strange sounds echo through its halls and flickers of movement appear in dark corners, Blair begins to question everything she thought she knew about her father, the Solomons who built the house, and herself. 
    When an online paranormal investigator named Cash arrives, eager to document the haunting, the lines between skepticism and belief blur—and the ghosts of Solomon House begin to reveal the truth about what happened there, and what still lingers within. 
    Richly atmospheric and emotionally charged, The Haunting of Solomon House is a gothic psychological thriller about family secrets, grief, and the stories that refuse to die—perfect for fans of Simone St. James, Jennifer McMahon, and Darcy Coates.
