We open the episode with more great publishing news—a trend we hope never ends! After that, we get into the episode proper with a review of L. Stephenson's new horror novella, The Boy at No. 9 Whitlock. 

At first it was bad parents, bullies, and budding romances. But the tragic life of young Matthew Rose is about to get much worse...because the boy who lives at No. 9 Whitlock is about to meet a demon.

"One of the darkest coming-of-age horrors I've read. Grizzly and unrelenting. I wanted to look away, but I couldn't." - KEV HARRISON, Author of Shadow of the Hidden & Below

"Stephenson shows that horror isn’t all about sending chills down one’s spine; sometimes, it can be about moving the heart." - REBECCA ROWLAND, Shirley Jackson Award-nominated Author of White Trash & Recycled Nightmares
