Walk into the woods. Dive into the water. Make a wish. Meet your fate. Bram Stoker Award-winning author Sarah Read returns with a new collection of cautions and disturbances across 18 grim tales. Prepare to inherit stories of fossil-haunted houses, of doorways to the afterlife. In the woods, learn of vengeful wolves and women. In the water, discover shipwrecks stuck in time. Find Devonian monsters and islands where your father loved to fish--and where your future hangs in the balance. "Each story is original, terrifying, and compelling, but when Read pits what readers think is coming against the extremely sinister tone at the heart of each tale, it is as if she is stabbing their tender spots with a knife, twisting it, and leaving it to dangle long after the lastpage is turned."Booklist"After a dose of Root Rot, you won't look at mirrors, folklore, or Grandma the same way ever again. Sarah Read's take on horror ratchets up the old midnight fears until their heads twist around like Satan's own parliament of owls." Laird Barron, author of The Wind Began to Howl¿¿¿"Root and Rot & Other Grim Tales by Sarah Read is a spine-tingling walk through a wooded lane at twilight, all shadows and angles and deepening disquiet, with just enough hope-light to keep you moving forward. Only the path always takes an unexpected turn with Read, who bewitches and bedevils even the most ordinary moments, revealing her pinch-me perceptiveness even as she beguiles us with her prose. A truly startling collection of dark tales from one of the sharpest storytellers of our time." Lee Murray, five-time Bram Stoker Award®-winning author of Grotesque: Monster Stories.

La novela debut de Sarah Read nos traslada a un internado inglés que esconde secretos terroríficos. Charley Winslow es un jovencito que acaba de trasladarse a Old Cross, una vieja abadía reconvertida en internado. Cuando desaparece el único amigo que tiene en la institución, Charley se adentrará en los recovecos más sombríos del internado en busca de respuestas. Este audiolibro está narrado en castellano.Sarah Read (Wisconsin) es una escritora de terror y ficción oscura. Ha participado en varias publicaciones con sus historias cortas, algunas de ellas recopiladas en Out of water, su colección de relatos. El jardín del tallador de huesos es su primera novela, ganadora del Stoker y del This is terror.

THIS IS AN INVITATION TO DROWNING.These are the stories of things out of water-of sea bed deserts choked with ghosts; of the lonely, roving children of the fen. Here your garden grows belowground. You will be born into a cradle of your own bones, shadows will burst from your eyes, and your mouth will fill with thorns. Storms will twist inside you, and the ghosts of your past will follow you and chart your future.Here, things are out of place-ectopic and unviable-and you will mourn the unborn, those underwater things out of water.

He’s run away home. That’s what they say every time one of Charley Winslow’s friends vanishes from The Old Cross School for Boys.It’s just a tall tale. That’s what they tell Charley when he sees the ragged grey figure stalking the abbey halls at night.When Charley follows his pet insects to a pool of blood behind a false wall, he could run and let those stones bury their secrets. He could assimilate, focus on his studies, and wait for his father to send for him. Or he could walk the dark tunnels of the school’s heart, scour its abandoned passages, and pick at the scab of a family’s legacy of madness and murder.With the help of Sam Forster, the school’s gardener, and Matron Grace, the staff nurse, Charley unravels Old Cross’ history and exposes a scandal stretching back to when the school was a home with a noble family and a dark secret—a secret that still haunts its halls with scraping steps, twisting its bones into a new generation of nightmares.
