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.
HAMNET x NOSFERATU
The black sheep of a powerful 14th-century Irish family pursues a forbidden romance with the banshee who's haunted his household for generations.

Elka did the portrait for my latest DND character and was absolutely fantastic to work with. I cannot recommend him highly enough!
The graphic takes place atop a dark purple background with an abstract vine-like pattern that looks like a Victorian wallpaper. At the top of the graphic is the title "This Wretched Beauty” in a large, cursive white font, followed by “the pre-order campaign” beneath it in a smaller, italic font (still white). The middle of the graphic is covered by a burgundy bar which features the following text in a similar font as above: “Submit your pre-order receipt for: / Lost letters never sent between Dorian and Basil / The chance to win an annotated copy of The Picture of Dorian Gray.” Both the top corners of this bar are decorated with parchment clipart that, in two different handwriting fonts, show the words “My Dear Basil” (left) and “Dearest Dorian” (right). The bottom third of the graphic includes both the North American and UK covers of This Wretched Beauty, both surrounded by a delicate gold-coloured frame.
