**  
BRAM STOKER AWARD FINALIST - AN _ESQUIRE_ AND _LIBRARY JOURNAL_ BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR**

Josh Malerman is a master weaver of stories--and in this spine-chilling collection he spins five twisted tales from the shadows of the human soul:

A sister insists to her little brother that **"Half the House Is Haunted"** by a strange presence. But is it the house that's haunted--or their childhoods?

In **"Argyle,"** a dying man confesses to homicides he never committed, and he reveals long-kept secrets far more sinister than murder.

A tourist takes the ultimate trip to outer space in **"The Jupiter Drop,"** but the real journey is into his own dark past.

In **"Doug and Judy Buy the House Washer(TM),"** a trendy married couple buys the latest home gadget only to find themselves trapped by their possessions, their history . . . and each other.

And in **"Egorov,"** a wealthy old cretin murders a young man, not knowing the victim was a triplet. The two surviving brothers stage a savage faux-haunting--playing the ghost of their slain brother--with the aim of driving the old murderer mad.
