Violet by Scott Thomas
In the lineage of Peter Straub and Julia, Scott Thomas Violet is the disturbing tale of a woman haunted by her long-abandoned imaginary friend.
"The sense of dread builds slowly in this atmospheric, character-driven tale" —Library Journal, selected as a Best Horror Book of 2019 “Thomas is a horror novelist who will be camping out on your shelves for years to come.” —Booklist (starred review) "Thomas conjures the power of grief with dreadful clarity, rendering the entity’s vengeance as inevitable as it is chilling. It’s a gruesome, ghostly, yet moving tale of love, loss, and the endless power of memory." —Publishers Weekly "The sheer, skin-crawling fright is masterful. Thomas has crafted an indelible story...all wrapped in a supernatural shroud that unfurls from the heart of America. Whether or not thoughts can breathe, books certainly can, and Violet does exactly that." —Jason Heller, National Public Radio "A master class in immersion. Don't let anybody tell you this book is a slow burn—Violet travels at the speed of horror." —Josh Malerman, New York Times bestselling author of Bird Box and A House at the Bottom of a Lake “Unputdownable nightmare fuel. Some of the most compelling storytelling I’ve read in a long time.” —Sadie Hartmann, Cemetery Dance "Not since Peter Straub’s Ghost Story has a book so fully mesmerized and terrified me." —Shane D. Keene, Horror DNA "Thomas cuts even deeper and darker. If you weren't already a fan, this should be the book to do it." —Sam Reader, Barnes & Noble
