Истории Hodgson

A stand-alone story featuring the character created by William Hope Hodgson in 1910. Carnacki has invited his friends round for supper and, of course, a ghost story. He recounts one of his earliest cases, from twenty years ago when he was new to London and struggling to set up as a professional ghost-finder. Miss Dutton, an elderly and extremely wealthy spinster, seeks his help. A niece she has never heard of has arrived from French Guyana, better known to the English as 'Devil's Island.' The niece doesn't speak English and is, apparently, possessed. Carnacki suspects a fraud and agrees to visit Miss Dutton at home in swanky Dorchester Square. There he finds nothing is as he expected. He becomes part of the household, gets to know the other residents and befriends the victim, Miss Falatin. Finally he finds a clue to her condition and steels himself to free her.

What happens when a murderer is too lazy to clean up his own bodies? He hires someone else to do it for him. Chess Finnegan is a cleaner, and strictly a janitor of dead bodies. He doubles as a starving artist and tries to survive in the real world as an orphaned PTSD survivor. The cleaner and the killer have never met in person, and when one of them makes a mistake, the alliance quickly falls into a rivalry. This story is thrilling and full of twists and turns as the characters reveal ugly truths about each other. With a unique antagonist unlike any other, you'll be sure to keep the pages turning to find out who succeeds and who fails in an anonymous battle of morally disturbed humans. Oh... and you'll also find out why it's called Cherry Pits.
