"At once suspenseful and tender...a queer horror masterpiece." --Marisa Crane, author of I Keep My Exoskeletons to Myself In this chilling contemporary horror novel, a phony spiritualist returns to her hometown to assist in an investigation that eerily mirrors her sister's death, forcing her to confront the secrets she's been running from. Sixteen years ago, Brigit Weylan's older sister, Emma, walked into the woods in their small hometown of Ellis Creek. She never walked out. People said she was troubled--in the months leading up to her death, she was convinced there was a monster in those trees. Marked by the tragedy, Brigit left town and never looked back. Now Brigit travels around the country investigating paranormal activity (and faking the results) with her cameraman, Ian. But when she receives a call from Ellis Creek, she's thrust into the middle of a search for two missing teenagers. As Brigit and Ian are drawn further into the case, the parallels to Emma's death become undeniable. And worse, Brigit can't explain what's happening to her: trees appearing in her bedroom in the middle of the night, something with a very familiar laugh watching her out in the darkness, and Emma's voice on her phone, reminding Brigit to finish what they started. More and more, it looks like Emma was right: there is a monster in Ellis Creek, and it's waited a long time for Brigit to come home.

"Part memoir and part study of the intricacies of the ocean, this exploration invites readers to imagine alternative ways of living. In a book that is much more than an account of deep-sea creatures, journalist Imbler compellingly examines the parallels between the lives and priorities of people and aquatic animals. The author's ability to locate connections across seemingly disparate topics--e.g., their experience with sexual assault and the life of a 10-foot-long worm called a sand striker--is both unique and engaging." --provided by publisher.

Encounters across phone lines, over drinks, through walkie-talkies, and unspoken recognitions between queer bodies fill this collection with explorations of what it means to be seen.The micro-narratives in I Can Hear You, Can You Hear Me? both celebrate and grieve the connections they illuminate. Nolan Natasha's poetry is plainspoken but lyrical, sweet but frank, nostalgic but unromanticized, combining the atmosphere of Eileen Myles with the musical insight of Helen Humphreys. These poems bring an unflinching examination and a keen sense of humour to moments of human connection and self-exploration."Nolan Natasha's writing is so clear-eyed, funny, tender, and absorbing. I love these poems and this sparkling debut."--Zoe Whittall

Dante"Romeo wasn't cut out for this kind of life. When I first set eyes on him, his cute face and seductive young body, I knew he'd walked into the wrong club, therefore, I tried to warn him. My brother Nico hadn't seen a young impressionable man he hadn't wanted to take to his bed, and I knew Romeo would be the next casualty, but I did warn him. 'You shouldn't be in here. This is not the club you're looking for, and do not accept an offer from Nico.' However, he was a stubborn individual, but I liked that about him. In fact I liked everything about Romeo, however, therein lay the problem. I was straight and had always been, and in my line of business, I had to be the boss of the Bonetti family to enjoy the privileges of taking a man for a lover."Book 2 straight to gay, age gap, second chances, and HFN.
