Jilo
(Witching Savannah): J.D. Horn
Aged Mother Jilo is wise in the ways of magic - but once
upon a time, she was just a girl. 1950s Georgia: King
Cotton has fallen. Savannah is known as the
"beautiful woman with a dirty face," its
stately elegance faded by neglect, its soul withering
from racial injustice and political corruption. Young
Jilo - fiercely independent, intelligent, and ambitious,
but thwarted by Savannah's maddeningly genteel version
of bigotry - finds herself forced to embrace a dark
power that has pursued her family for generations, an
ancient magic that may prove her salvation - or her
undoing.

Ghost
Road Blues: Jonathan Maberry
Thirty years ago, a blues musician called the Bone Man
killed the devil at the crossroads, only to be beaten
and hung like a scarecrow in a cornfield - or so the
story goes. Today, the people of Pine Deep celebrate
their town's grisly past by luring tourists to the
famous haunted hayride, full of chills and scares. But
this year, "The Spookiest Town in America"
will learn the true meaning of fear. Its residents will
see the real face of evil lurking behind the masks of
ordinary people. They will feel it - in their hearts, in
their bones, in their nightmares. Because evil never
dies. It only grows stronger.

The
Searcher: Simon Toyne
On a hilltop in the town of Redemption, Arizona, the
townspeople gather at an old cemetery for the first time
in decades to bury a local man. The somber occasion is
suddenly disrupted by a thunderous explosion in the
distant desert. A plane has crashed, and it's pouring a
pillar of black smoke into the air. As Sheriff Garth
Morgan speeds toward the crash, he nearly hits a tall,
pale man running down the road, with no shoes on his
feet and no memory of who he is or how he got there. The
only clues to his identity are a label in his handmade
suit jacket and a book that's been inscribed to him:
both giving the name Solomon Creed. When Morgan tells
Solomon that he is in Redemption, Arizona, Solomon
begins to believe he's here for a reason - to save a man
he has never met - the man who was buried that morning.
