CINDERWICH by Cherie Priest Coming May 14th, 2024 ISBN (softcover) 978-1-955765-20-6 Available through Diamond Book Distribution ______ CHAPTER ONE (Excerpt) The first Ellen Thrush has probably been dead all this time—and it’s not that I don’t care, exactly.

Apex Book Company Blog

Editors Sheree Renée Thomas and Lesley Conner are looking for stories about places where weird things happen. Places that have strange histories, their own traditions and customs, their own dangers.

The weather is turning cold in the north, warming up in the south. Trees are coming quietly awake or settling into their branches for the winter. In the darkest corners, things seen only in the pause between breaths slink nearer, seeking your love. We're staying busy at Apex, and we're grateful to you for being with us for the adventure.
