A terrifying tale from a Bram Stoker Award–nominated author who “has consistently created some of the best horror ever set to print” (Cemetery Dance). Foster care is like Russian roulette, says fifteen-year-old Ryan Kettering, who’s spent most of his young life in largely abusive homes. Sometimes the hammer clicks and you’re fine. Sometimes it’s a bullet to the brain. This time it seems the hammer has clicked. Living with the Prestons in a rambling two-story house in Shasta County, the chores are split between Ryan and five other foster kids. Not counting nine-year-old Maddy. Not much is expected of her. She stays in the basement. The other children don’t know much about Maddy. But what they do know, they don’t like. She’s just not right. She speaks in a strange, gravelly adult voice. Maybe Ryan can make a difference. Spend time with her. Get acquainted. He understands what it means to be lonely. That’s when he decides to do what no other child in the house dares: Ryan’s going down to the basement. From the author of Live Girls and The Loveliest Dead, a recipient of the World Horror Convention’s Grand Master Award, this is a chilling story of supernatural terror.

Josef Fritzl was a 73-year-old retired engineer in Austria. He seemed to be living a normal life with his wife, Rosemarie, and their family—though one daughter, Elisabeth, had decades earlier been "lost" to a religious cult. Throughout the years, three of Elisabeth's children mysteriously appeared on the Fritzls' doorstep; Josef and Rosemarie raised them as their own. But only Josef knew the truth about Elisabeth's disappearance... For twenty-seven years, Josef had imprisoned and molested Elisabeth in his man-made basement dungeon, complete with sound-proof paneling and code-protected electric locks. There, she would eventually give birth to a total of seven of Josef's children. One died in infancy—and the other three were raised alongside Elisabeth, never to see the light of day. Then, in 2008, one of Elisabeth's children became seriously ill, and was taken to the hospital. It was the first time the nineteen-year-old girl had ever gone outside—and soon, the truth about her background, her family's captivity, and Josef's unspeakable crimes would come to light. John Glatt's Secrets in the Cellar is the true story of a crime that shocked the world.

"Lily?" My stomach dropped as a tall, dark-haired man stepped into view. Had he been hiding between the trees? "No. Sorry." Gulping, I took a step back. "I'm not Lily." He shook his head, a satisfied grin on his face. "No. You are Lily." "I'm Summer. You have the wrong person." You utter freak! I could hear my pulse crashing in my ears. How stupid to give him my real name. He continued to stare at me, smiling. It made me feel sick. "You are Lily," he repeated. Before I could blink, he threw his arms forward and grabbed me. I tried to shout, but he clasped his hand over my mouth, muffling my screams. My heart raced. I'm going to die. For months Summer is trapped in a cellar with the man who took her—and three other girls: Rose, Poppy, and Violet. His perfect, pure flowers. His family. But flowers can't survive long cut off from the sun, and time is running out...

Stanley Carter was a self made man who came from nothing. Through hard work and creativity he became a billionaire, but loved to dominate, control and manipulate women. Over the course of his career he gave over two hundred million to charity, yet had a fetish for women less than half his age. He was an inspirational speaker on the level of Dr. King or Malcolm X, but would go to abnormal levels to feed his desire and ego. Stanley would even break the law and codes of morality if necessary.Stanley became obsessed with a local waitress, inviting her to dinner at his home with ulterior motives. Deja, his victim, would be chained to a metal pole in his extravagant basement, a place that looked more like a crash pad, than a hostage destination. In the end it was no more than a comfortable cage, and a place his victim couldn't leave. Not until she loved him. This would be a carefully planned process he would work on daily until she became used to her new lifestyle and fell into submission. Along the way we meet the wife who left him due to control, anger, and womanizing issues and the teenage daughter who did the same. We learn what transformed Stanley from what used to be a decent man into a monster.Will Stanley be found out? How will this impact the family he already has? What happens if a victim falls in love with their abuser? Will a man who is emotionally disturbed become well? Will a family that is emotionally disturbed ever be at peace?These questions and more are answered in The Girl Chained in my Basement, an intense look at obsession, sex, power, and people who are emotionally disturbed.The author is quoted as saying, "This isn't about a woman being sexually molested and tortured in a basement. I didn't want to write the expected. I wanted to write about how people who are emotionally disturbed became that way and the events that led to them being that way. It looks like an exploitation novel on the surface. As you read you will see there is more going on. God bless.
