Four brand-new novellas by the #1 New York Times-bestselling, National
Book Award-winning “grand mistress of ghoulishness” (Publishers
Weekly). An academic in Pennsylvania discovers a terrifying trauma
from her past after inheriting a house in Cardiff, Maine from someone
she has never heard of. A pubescent girl, overcome with loneliness,
befriends a feral cat that becomes her protector from the increasingly
aggressive males that surround her. A brilliant but shy college
sophomore is distraught to discover that she’s pregnant, and the
professor who takes her under his wing may not have innocent
intentions. And a woman who marries into a family shattered by tragedy
finds herself haunted by her predecessor’s voice, an inexplicably
befouled well, and a compulsive attraction to a garage that took two
lives. In these psychologically daring, chillingly suspenseful pieces,
the author of We Were the Mulvaneys and Blonde writes about women
facing threats past and present, once again cementing her reputation
for “great intelligence and dead-on imaginative powers” (Los
Angeles Times Book Review).
