When In A Myth

Shh….shh…..shh…..can you hear their whispers? They are everywhere. They are here for revenge, for blood, for sacrifice. They have stemmed from the very roots of our culture.

 

Are you ready to dive into a world of some spine chilling myths?

 

When In A Myth is an episodic series based on the very folklores or bedtime stories that we have been hearing since childhood. Each season brings out a delicious twist to the spooky historical myths found in Indian culture.

My Last Brother

How far away will you run from the ghosts of your past?

 

Rule No. 1: Rent’s due on the first of every month.

 

Rule No. 2: No loud noises or partying.

 

Rule No. 3 and the most important one: Never, ever go to the west side of the house.

 

Those are the only three rules that Rohit has set for his newly acquired tenant, Darsh. Fiercely protective of his privacy, Rohit would have never gotten a tenant if not for his financial situation. His life is in tatters, he’s become a shell of a man and after losing his entire family in a car crash, he’s still learning how to function. Now, Rohit spends his days tormented and alone in the bleak mansion. When Darsh moves into the dreary house, he begins to notice that the cheap rent was too good to be true. On top of that, Rohit’s rules might be alluding to much darker secrets. As Darsh begins to uncover the web of half-truths and lies, he starts giving into the small town’s rumours and gossip. Now he has a choice–get out safe and alive or…let curiosity kill the cat.

Carrying On

Nadia has to start over. But will characters from her past—and the dead body at the beach house—let her?

 

From accomplished author Jonita Davis comes a witty and vivid murder mystery, Carrying On. A perfect match for fans of the Stephanie Plum novels and Dial A for Aunties (winner of the Comedy Women In Print prize 2021), this book packs a punch!

 

Nadia sits, tied to a chair, watching curiously as three so-called “gangsters” fret about a ferret. The only thing she can think about at the moment is her life before all of this. At what point did it all go wrong?

 

Well, to understand that, we have to take a trip that started a few weeks and 600 miles back.

 

Before the darned pink Caddy showed up.

Before the seriously sexy paramedic rescued her.

Before a respected local politician was accused of a heinous crime.

 

We have to start on the day when Nadia went about her business, thinking that she had life all put together.

 

She did, until it broke.

 

“Jonita’s witty and comedic Carrying On is also an exciting and thrilling mystery that I couldn’t put down. The story will have you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end.” — Danny Strong (Emmy Award winning Writer, Actor, Director, Producer)

 

“Nadia’s humor and voice are striking, and practically alive on the page. From the very first word, you’re rooting for her every step of the way.” — Alicia Sparrow (Acquisitions Editor, Chicago Review Press, Lawrence Hill Books)

 

 

The Séance That Never Dies

A grieving mother. A séance that went wrong.

 

Binged all of Shirley Jackson’s books and the Netflix sensation The Haunting of Hill House? Looking for your next supernatural obsession? Look no further!

 

Debut author M.Q. Nguyen pens an eerie and emotional tale of a mother and daughter, bound beyond life and death.

 

When Maggie steals a shard of bone from her daughter Carrie’s urn during the ash-scattering ceremony, she is unaware what forces she is allowing into her new home.

 

Strange little happenings around the house leave Maggie hopeful that her daughter is back, but little does she know this comes at a price. Along with her daughter’s gentle spirit, she senses a malevolent one—one that is out to get her! If she brings in an exorcist, they will most likely purge the house of all ghosts, and Maggie cannot bear to lose Carrie so soon, all over again.

 

As the hauntings grow more violent, Maggie has to face the fact that she has a choice to make—it’s her life or Carrie.

 

When the good forces intermingle with the evil, what will a desperate Maggie feel compelled to do to bring her daughter back? What would you?
