New York Times bestselling author John Connolly, "one of the best thriller writers we have" (Harlan Coben, #1 New York Times bestselling author), returns with a shivery collection of supernatural tales.
Filled with eerie surprises and dark delights, Night and Day takes us from the dusty shelves of an uncanny library filled with fictional characters to a bunker deep beneath the earth where scientists seek revenge on old Nazis; from an English marsh haunted by a mother and her son to a country house where a grieving widower finds comfort from a most unlikely source. Concluding with the author's account of how an obscure horror film brought him closer to his lost father, and how nostalgia can help to keep us sane, this is a collection that will move, entertain, and keep you reading late into the night. John Connolly is the author of the #1 internationally bestselling Charlie Parker thrillers series, The Book of Lost Things and its sequel The Land of Lost Things, the Samuel Johnson Trilogy for younger readers, and (with Jennifer Ridyard) the Chronicles of the Invaders series. He lives in Dublin, Ireland. For more information, see his website at JohnConnollyBooks.com, or follow him on X and BlueSky @JConnollyBooks. "A spooky collection of short stories drawn from previous collections and a few new ones are brought to life by a quartet of talented narrators. The short stories offer an eclectic variety of horror tales, some ideal for a quick listen. Gerard Logan, Caroline Lennon, Mark Meadows, and Jeff Harding bring the bizarre plots to life in sinister tones. Plots range from fictional characters who live in a library to time travelers who are hunting Nazis. There's a performance sure to capture the ear of any horror fan. The concluding section, narrated by Logan, discusses one the author's most beloved horror movies. While the narration is engaging throughout, Logan brings the discussion to life with an especially pleasing cadence and eager tone."
