Apart in the Dark: Novellas
Apart in the Dark: Novellas | Ania Ahlborn
8 posts | 5 read | 12 to read
Now available for the first time in a print edition--two terrifying novellas from bestselling author Ania Ahlborn, "a great storyteller who spins an atmosphere of dread literally from the first page" (Jeff Somers). THE PRETTY ONES New York, 1977. The sweltering height of the Summer of Sam. The entire city is gripped with fear, but all Nell Sullivan worries about is whether or not she'll ever make a friend. The self-proclaimed "Plain Jane" does her best to fit in with the girls at work, but Nell's brother, Barrett, assures her that she'll never be like them. When Nell manages to finally garner some much-yearned-for attention, the unthinkable happens to her newfound friend. The office pool blames Son of Sam, but Nell knows the awful truth...because doing the devil's work is easy when there's already a serial killer on the loose. I CALL UPON THEE Maggie Olsen had a pretty ordinary childhood--swimming and sleepovers, movie nights and dad jokes. And then there were the other things...the darker things...the shadow that followed her home from the cemetery and settled into the corners of her home, refusing to let her grow up in peace. Now, after three years away from the place she's convinced she inadvertently haunted, and after yet another family tragedy strikes, Maggie is forced to return to the sweltering heat of a Savannah summer to come to terms with her past. All along, she's been telling herself, it was just in your head, and she nearly convinces herself that she'd imagined it all. But the moment Maggie steps into the foyer of her family home, she knows. The darkness is still here. And it's been waiting for Maggie's return....

I‘ve read almost all of Ania Ahlborn‘s books now. Brother is my all time favorite but holy crap, Apart in the Dark is soooo good. It‘s 2 novellas, The Pretty Ones is a good serial killer/unpopular girl story but I Call Upon Thee is soooo good! If you‘ve ever used a Ouija board and love to be creeped out, you should read it!! See ya later, I‘m off to buy a Ouija board!! Wish I‘d kept mine from the 80s!!

vivastory I Call Upon Thee is one of my favorite Ahlborn works. So deliciously creepy 3y
