First up this month’s Sam speaks to Max Lury about his unsettling debut No Ghosts. After being reunited at Annie’s memorial, Kieran and Harlow begin separate searches for their lost friend. Harlow, discovers fragments of the dead – faces, gestures, glances – in AI generated videos;  Kieran, aimless and isolated, stumbles into an occult community of those dedicated to finding the missing ghosts. No Ghosts is a novel set in new space - the eerie, boundless simulcra of ai and the dead air of a spiritless age. Unnerving and uncannily recognisable, it is infused from the first page to the last with the terrible weight of an elusive absence.

Then Lara sits down with Ghost in the Throat author Doireann ní Ghríofha to hear all about Said The Dead - an unforgettable book - both history and ghost story - that will leave you gasping by its final page. In the city of Cork, a derelict Victorian mental hospital is being converted into modern apartments. One passerby has always flinched as she passes the place. Had she lived in another time, she too might have found herself held within those walls. Now, she notices a sign: FOR SALE. It is the first of many signs.
