Dog Star
There has been a death on the University campus. Allison Hutchins, a painting major at the Art College, has been found hanging from a tree in the campus orchard, with a rope dyed purple. Was it a performance art project gone terribly wrong? Or perhaps a suicide? Or something else?Detective Second Schuyler, the county officer assigned to the case, is open to the ideas of both accident or suicide as the cause. As for the other, though?Cyrus Barnaby, another painting major, and as close to a boyfriend that Allison had allowed, is convinced that she was murdered. Beside the more obvious reasons, he has one more, one so compelling he wonders at his sanity:he thinks Allison has begun haunting him, trying every way she can, from wherever she has gone, to tell him who murdered her. These two journeys, Detective Schuyler's in this world, and Cyrus's in the next, must inevitably come together to answer the question, to bring peace to both the living and the dead: who killed Allison?
Dark Work
SST's DARK WORK brings together the best magazine and book illustrations and covers from Keith Minnion's twenty-year career in the horror genre. Keith chooses to work in traditional media-pencil, ink, paint-and all are showcased in 100 pages of full color and rich black and white art. Shelley's Monster, Leiber's Demons of the Upper Air, Blatty's Exorcist, Strand's Aspiring Lunatic, Curran's Corpse King, Crowther's Eater, Ketchum's Gorilla, O'Nan's Monsters, and every shadow, terror and nightmare in between, are all here. Along with scores of previously published illustrations, there is also a section of work published here for the first time. The award-winning illustrator Steven C. Gilberts provides an insightful introductory essay, and Keith also supplies a complete and detailed index of the work presented.

The Boneyard
There are two realities in the world: the one you know, and the one you hopefully will never know. The Boneyard is that other place, and that is where the bone worms live. Two old men, lost together in The Boneyard when they were just six years old, now find themselves the focus of the wrath and revenge the bone worms have held for them since their escape so many years ago. At the same time, in the same city, a detective sergeant is faced with a succession of gruesome, seemingly sadistic murders that threaten not only his career, but his sanity as well. How these two stories intertwine forms the meat on the bone of The Bone Worms. Watch where you go. Watch how high you go. If you have something The Boneyard wants, they will open a door ... and pull you in. Included in the updated eBook edition: "Close the Door: The Final Chapter of the Bone Worms"

Read Me and Other Ghost Stories
It is 1974, and Cyrus Barnaby is a sophomore in college. He is also an orphan, having survived a horrific automobile accident fourteen years previously, an accident that took both his parents’ lives. Now Cyrus is an art student, a painting major at a large upstate university. He paints Dark Angels and gothic, symbolist landscapes.He also draws the cadavers in the Medical College’s dissection rooms, and what appear (to one professor at least) to be messages from the dead, written in blood vessel patterns in harvested brain cauls. Cyrus lives with other students in a large Victorian rooming house they call “Our House”. Although Our House looks, sounds, and acts like it is haunted, it isn’t. Cyrus is. READ ME, a novella, is a mystery story and a ghost story combined, and fits hand-in-glove with nine other ghost stories in this collection, including two new stories, “The Retirement” and “The Wrinkle”, published here for the first time.
