After his estranged father’s mysterious death, Charlie Remick returns to Seattle to help with the funeral. There, he discovers his father left him two parting gifts: the keys to the family record store and a strange black case containing four ancient records that, according to legend, can open a gate to the land of the dead. When Charlie, his sister, and their two friends play the records, they unwittingly open a floodgate of unspeakable horror. As the darkness descends, they are stalked by a relentless, malevolent force and see the dead everywhere they turn.

Now reduced to a schoolyard chant, the Hope family murders shocked the Maine coast one bloody night in 1929. While most people assume seventeen-year-old Lenora was responsible, the police were never able to prove it. Other than her denial after the killings, she has never spoken publicly about that night, nor has she set foot outside Hope’s End, the cliffside mansion where the massacre occurred. It’s now 1983, and home-health aide Kit McDeere arrives at a decaying Hope’s End to care for Lenora after her previous nurse fled in the middle of the night.

A wealthy publisher, brooding over his impending death, has paid a physicist and two mediums to establish the facts of life after death once and for all.

In upstate New York, in the woods around Woodstock, Dutchman's Creek flows out of the Ashokan Reservoir. Steep-banked, fast-moving, it offers the promise of fine fishing, and of something more, a possibility too fantastic to be true. When Abe and Dan, two widowers who have found solace in each other's company and a shared passion for fishing, hear rumors of the Creek, and what might be found there, the remedy to both their losses, they dismiss it as just another fish story.

The Horror of Loss
- By Jim N on 04-20-17
By: John Langan
Publisher's summary
After the death of their infant son, Hal and Rowan Graham decide to leave the mad bustle of London and move to a quiet country refuge. And the rustic village of Moorstone seems perfect. Too perfect? Lying beneath a hill capped by an enormous stone, Moorstone hides mysterious secrets. Why does such a small town need such a large insane asylum? Why do the village's elderly residents leave everything they own to young newcomers they barely know? And why is everyone so friendly, so handsome, and so preoccupied with Hal and Rowan's health?
Before the Grahams can piece the insidious puzzle together, they are plunged into a spiraling terror of ancient mysteries reborn, people who are not quite what they seem, and a village that is quaint, charming - and deadly!
When it comes to spine-chilling tales of quiet horror, no one surpasses Bernard Taylor, the best-selling author of the classic novels, The Godsend and Sweetheart, Sweetheart.
"Reaches its horrifying climax with seductive grace." (Library Journal)
"A fine atmosphere of terror." (New York Times)
"Slow-building occult horror." (Kirkus Reviews)
"His fiction grips and holds the reader.... Taylor is a master." (Publishers Weekly)

Fantastic horror, deeply sad.
Just absolutely heartbreaking work of fiction, and an exceptional horror story because of it. A classic for a reason.

Was slightly predictable
I figured it out that is the what and why but ending was a surprise still. That said it was still very good story and narrator did very good job with different voices. It reminded me of a movie I saw I think the name of it was the key or something along those lines with Kate Hudson. Which I might add I loved so I really did enjoy this book. Yes I would recommend this title to anyone interested. I was given this audio in exchange for honest and fair review for free. P.s I finished this audio in less than two days, couldn’t put it down.

Excellent Pacing - Truly Horrifying
The cruelest of slow burns. Endlessly mounting tension, toward an ending you'll never forget. Full marks.
