~Some inheritances come with a bite~ Wilhelmina Barrows always felt she was alone. Her father left when she was eight and her mother died just before her seventeenth birthday. So when she receives a mysterious letter informing her of an estranged grandfather's death and inheritance of a remote farm resting just outside a village forgotten by time. With no memory of such a man or place, she dismisses it as a prank. After a betrayal by the two people she trusted most in the world, Mina breaks down and, with nothing left tying her to the urban grind, abandons the only home she's ever known for a chance at a new life. But things aren't always what they appear to be, and Mina may have bitten off more than she can chew with her new start at life. The villagers are friendly but odd and strange things start happening around the farm, things that bring to light the secrets of her own family. Will Mina make it out alive or will she be swallowed whole by the monsters that lurk in the shadows?

She came looking for a story. The story was looking for her. In the mountains of Pakistan lies Barzakhpur - a village that phases in and out of existence. A place where the fog lingers too long and the dead don't leave. Taniksha Shah rents an old haveli for creative solitude. Instead, she finds Aslan Ijaz - silent, severe, and far too watchful for a mere caretaker. He tells her not to leave after dark. He doesn't tell her he's chained himself to a bed every night to keep something inside him from reaching her. Because the entity wearing his bones has started to hate the way he looks at her. And in Barzakhpur, love is a weakness the dead do not forgive.
