Description

An Instant New York Times, USA Today, and Indie Bestseller
A Barnes & Noble Best Horror Book of 2024
A Goodreads Best Horror Choice Award Nominee

Now in paperback, this New York Times bestseller is the chilling gothic sequel to What Moves the Dead, a new adventure featuring beloved sworn soldier Alex Easton.

After their terrifying ordeal at the Usher manor, Alex Easton feels as if they just survived another war. All they crave is rest, routine, and sunshine, but instead, as a favor to Angus and Miss Potter, they find themself heading to their family hunting lodge, deep in the cold, damp forests of their home country, Gallacia.

In theory, one can find relaxation in even the coldest and dampest of Gallacian autumns, but when Easton arrives, they find the caretaker dead, the lodge in disarray, and the grounds troubled by a strange, uncanny silence. The villagers whisper that a breath-stealing monster from folklore has taken up residence in Easton's home. Easton knows better than to put too much stock in local superstitions, but they can tell that something is not quite right in their home. . . or in their dreams.

Critical Reviews

Praise for What Moves the Dead:

"A grotesque romp! It takes up residence beneath your skin and refuses to leave."--Caitlin Starling, USA Today bestselling author of The Death of Jane Lawrence

"Thoroughly creepy and utterly enjoyable."--Publishers Weekly

"Creepy, claustrophobic, and completely entertaining, What Moves the Dead left me delightfully repulsed. I adored this book!"--Erin A. Craig, New York Times bestselling author of House of Salt and Sorrows

"T. Kingfisher spins biting wit, charm and terror into a tale that will make your skin crawl. Poe would be proud!"--Brom, author of Slewfoot

"Dissects the heart of Poe's most famous tale and finds a wholly new mythology beating inside it. ...Pure fun."--Andy Davidson, author of The Boatman's Daughter

"What Moves the Dead is a must-read, period."--Jordan Shiveley, author of Hot Singles In Your Area

"A gothic delight!"--Lucy A. Snyder, author of Sister, Maiden, Monster
