Nancy Holder recommends

Haunted (1991)
Tamara Thorne
"...a wonderful, terryfying book...a worthy successor to The Shining and Ghost Story."

Evil Reincarnate (1994)
Leigh Clark
"The mind-bending tale of an erotic hunger that lives beyond the grave and a murderer as seductive as he is evil - this is great stuff."

Fury (2011)
(Fury , book 1)
Elizabeth Miles
"A fresh dark twist on paranormal, with surprises around every corner. FURY kept me up all night!"

Origin (2013)
(Lux, book 4)
Jennifer L Armentrout
"An engrossing, sexy, nail-biter! I'm delighted to join the Daemon Invasion."

Unbreakable (2013)
(Legion, book 1)
Kami Garcia
"'Supernatural' meets 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer.' Kami Garcia is Joss Whedon's talent-sister! I didn't just read Unbreakable; I lived it. When it comes to supernatural suspense, Garcia is the Slayer."

Zomburbia (2014)
(Zombie Apocalypse, book 1)
Adam J Gallardo
"Scary, freaky and original. Get this book!"

The Adventure of the Deadly Dimensions (2017)
(Sherlock Holmes vs. Cthulhu, book 1)
Lois H Gresh
"THE ADVENTURE OF THE DEADLY DIMENSIONS held me spellbound and kept me guessing...until 3 AM on a work day! The Great Detective has met his literary match, and The Woman is author Lois Gresh. More!"

Bystander 27 (2020)
Rik Hoskin
"Bystander 27 is a twisty page-turner that freaked me out and kept me guessing. Rik Hoskin, you are SuperScribe! Bring on the sequel!"
