Bottling His Ghosts is the eighth book in our novella series and all the covers have been created by Lynne Hansen. For this one she turned in another eerie, but beautiful, piece that captures the novella inside perfectly. “This entry in the series has a Victorian feel and an intensely creepy atmosphere. Lynne has captured both with her beautiful cover art,” says managing editor Jennifer Barnes. The book is due out on July 15th but preorders will ship early and receive a $2 discount.

From the Afterword: “Cooper’s vivid characterization twists tropes and snatches them for her own. Bottling His Ghosts remains a singular tale of the ties that bind, the enduring and stubborn love of a sister for her adopted brother.”—Elizabeth Broadbent, author Blood Cypress

About the Book
After a tragic accident leaves her widowed, Netta flees home to Daunderhead hoping for the space to process her grief. Instead, she finds her cousin, Thorn, once like a brother to her, swimming at the bottom of every bottle he can find. Her parents, unable to break him from his alcoholic stupor, have grown despondent and resigned to his fate; and her once beautiful childhood home has fallen into the grasp of nefarious ghosts whose goals remain unclear. Refusing to allow another tragedy to befall her family, Netta takes it upon herself to help her cousin and–hopefully–stop the hauntings.
