Eight miles of mystery. One night of terror. Residents trapped in a remote neighborhood confront the unimaginable in this horror novel from award-winning author Debra Castaneda. The salt marsh at Devil's Landing is home to a terrifying urban legend. Adam Gray knows the old stories about the Slough Devil, the missing children, and the mutilated animals. But the naturalist and wilderness survival expert doesn't believe in monsters. Not even when a tourist on his boat sees a strange creature in the tidal channel and captures it on video. When Adam moves into a controversial housing development next to the marsh, shocking new evidence emerges, and it's not long before he's confronted with a series of horrifying and unexplained events. It takes Christina, his feisty new neighbor, to get him to believe something lurks in the slough. Something disturbed by the new community. When a massive storm maroons the residents, Adam and Christina find themselves trapped and tested in a fight for their lives. The Devil's Shallows is part of Debra Castaneda's Dark Earth Rising series of standalone novels. Read the books in any order. Content warning: Sexual assault

Light Paperback (1 lb or less)

The end is coming. What would you do? The first in a fast-paced and gripping YA dystopian series for anyone who's ever felt like their life--their world--is on the brink of destruction.

Like most high school seniors, Alexandra Lucas is caught between living in the moment and an unknown future. Her anxiety disorder doesn't make that any easier. But she's coping--until her train stops on the way home from a concert with her boyfriend. At first, she's worried about breaking curfew. Then terror echoes through their train car.

A mysterious doorway has appeared beside the tracks, and a hologram claiming to be a human from the future shares a sinister warning. A comet is on a collision course with earth. All life there will end in six months' time. To survive, people must step through one of the many portals that have opened around the world. 

The holograms claim to offer safety. But how can anyone be sure? Stay or go--everyone must make their own choice. Alex's family, her friends, her boyfriend all have different ideas. Alex is only sure of one thing: she wants to decide for herself. But every decision comes at a price.
