The vintage photographs of past murder victims displayed on the mansion’s walls have told her so. Compelled to listen to the reclusive teen’s pleas, Brennan begins to investigate her mother’s death and the disturbing secrets hidden in that house.

As the wealthy family’s long, sordid history threatens to bury Brennan, he realizes he has to make a choice: save his career, or risk it all for the chance to hear his daughter’s voice again."

"In this electric horror novel from the author of The Insatiable Volt Sisters, an exhausted mother thinks her newborn might be a monster. She's right. Thea's third pregnancy was her easiest. She wasn't consumed with anxiety about the baby. She wasn't convinced it was going to be born green, or have a third eye, or have tentacles sprouting from its torso. Thea was fine. Her baby would be fine. But when the nurses handed Lucia to her, Thea just knew. Her baby girl was a monster. Not only was Lucia born with a full set of teeth and a devilish glint in her eye, but she's always hungry. Indiscriminately so. One day Lucia pointed at her baby brother, looked Thea dead in the eye and said, "I eat." Thea doesn't know whether to be terrified or proud of her rapacious baby girl. And as Lucia starts growing faster and talking more, dark memories bubble to the surface--flashes from Thea's childhood that won't release their hooks from her heart. Lucia wants to eat the world. Thea might just let her. Crackling with originality and dark humor, Rachel Eve Moulton's Tantrum is a provocative exploration of familial debt, duty, and the darker side of motherhood."
Rachel Eve Moulton (Author), Rachel L. Jacobs (Narrator)

"'Chilling' FINANCIAL TIMES ‘Impressive and unsettling' NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW 'Eerie, shocking, provoking' GILLIAN FLYNN 'Rich in suspense, diabolical secrets and psychological insight’ ECONOMIST 'Engrossing even as it horrifies' BIG ISSUE A spellbinding novel of literary and psychological suspense about the dark secrets that surface after the shocking disappearance of a charismatic, mercurial teacher at an elite boarding school. Who is Francis Fox? A charming English teacher new to the idyllic Langhorne Academy, Fox beguiles many of his students, their parents, and his colleagues at the elite boarding school, while leaving others wondering where he came from and why his biography is so enigmatic. When two brothers discover Fox’s car half-submerged in a pond in a local nature preserve and parts of an unidentified body strewn about the nearby woods, the entire community, including Detective Horace Zwender and his deputy, begins to ask disturbing questions about Francis Fox and who he might really be. A hypnotic, galloping tale of crime and complicity, revenge and restitution, victim vs. predator, Joyce Carol Oates’s Fox illuminates the darkest corners of the human psyche while asking profound moral questions about justice and the response evil demands. A character as magnetically diabolical as Patricia Highsmith’s Tom Ripley and Vladimir Nabokov’s Humbert Humbert, Francis Fox enchants and manipulates nearly everyone around him, until at last he meets someone he can’t outfox. Written in Oates’s trademark intimate, sweeping style, and interweaving multiple points of view, Fox is a triumph of craftsmanship and artistry, a novel as profound as it is propulsive, as moving as it is full of mystery. 'Hauntingly explores the way that beguiling figures can inspire, create and shape art’ LOS ANGELES TIMES 'Mesmerizing' MICHAEL CONNELLY 'Oates is a genius' REBECCA MAKKAI 'Oates views the US through a gothic prism, forming images as striking as they are disturbing' FINANCIAL TIMES 'Absolutely chilling … this is Oates at her most disturbing and masterful’ SEATTLE TIMES 'Inescapably abhorrent yet enthralling … Oates understands, as always, how to keep us on the hook’ LOS ANGELES TIMES 'Engrossing even as it horrifies and reminds us that we cannot nor should not look away’ BIG ISSUE ‘A tautly wound procedural, elegantly written … Oates once again masterfully limns the worse angels of our nature’ KIRKUS REVIEWS ‘Menacing, mesmerizing, and thoroughly provocative’ BOOKLIST"

"Someone stole Azulin's true name. Cursed to ride with the Wild Hunt during each full moon, he is helpless against the Unseelie king's will. Over the years, the curse's grip has strengthened, making Azulin's magic difficult to control. Fighting the curse has exhausted his spirit to the point that he despairs of breaking its hold on him. Then one full moon, the curse places him in a labyrinth, not a hunt. Perhaps this is his chance, or maybe just a new form of torture. Calypso is a shapeshifter who can't change form. Living as an unpaid caregiver and laborer in her sister's household, her presence is barely tolerated in their insular community. When a strange fae threatens her pregnant sister, Calypso sacrifices herself. Perhaps an honorable death would give her life purpose. Instead, she ended up fighting for her life in a pitch-black labyrinth. The Fae King's Labyrinth is a light, fantasy romance novella about a relationship between a Seelie fae and a mortal woman. It features fae, found family, fated mates, and a romance between a noble and a commoner, played out in a perilous maze and an equally dangerous fae court."
