Grim Portents cover featuring a skeleton hand holding a feather and emerging from an open book. The title is on a burning banner that envelops the feather and a large beast looms over it all. At the top, the tagline reads: Welcome to the first day of the end of your life…
"I HAD ALWAYS TOLD MYSELF IT WAS A FIGMENT OF MY IMAGINATION, THE MIND PLAYING TRICKS. IT WAS JUST A SHADOW. BUT NOW THE MONSTER HAD BEEN GIVEN A NAME, AN IDENTITY. IT WAS REAL." Bill Baker wants nothing more than to marry the woman he loves, but when his wedding is interrupted by a rampaging hell-beast, his life is thrown into disarray. Desperate for a second chance, he will do anything to set his future back on track. Now, with the help of a soul-collecting reaper named Sonny, he must uncover who is releasing monsters from Hell, in order to earn back the life that was stolen from him and prevent the oncoming end of days. Faced with the choice between what is right and what is easy, Bill may have to sacrifice all he holds dear for one last shot at life.

Photo of a creepy gothic forest with the outline of red skeletal hands reaching in. Text reads "An Agent's Guide to The Banshee of Clan Murtagh: a gothic love story. 80,000 words, adult horror, by Anna Hirsch."
Torn paper with a graphic of praying hands holding a rosary. Text reads: The pitch: Ireland, 1348: When Ciarán Murtagh hears the cry of his family’s eternally young banshee, he hunts her down to learn who in his family is fated to die. In the struggle, his touch triggers memories of the banshee’s previous life as a servant of his household—and she demands to know more. They meet by moonlight searching for answers in the banshee’s memories, and Ciarán’s growing attraction sets him on a path of macabre desire. But as the devastating bubonic plague closes in, Ciarán must decide whether to stay by his dying family or succumb to the seduction of the death-bringer.
For fans of: the yearning in the time of plague in Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell, the Catholic horror in The Possession of Alba Díaz by Isabel Cañas, and the death-crossed lovers in Nosferatu directed by Robert Eggers.
A spooky forest with a red outline of a skeletal deer overlayed on it. Large text reads: The first line: I was a boy of ten when I first saw death, but I'd heard her for years.
