Church of Shadows: A Gothic Horror

In a forest stands a desecrated church, abandoned to the dark forces that fester within. What better place for a medium to seek answers from the dead?

At just eight years old, Tabitha Mainwater watched her best friend die. Wracked with grief, she swore never to let death steal anyone from her again. She would learn to speak to the dead—no matter the cost.

Two decades later, her search for answers leads her to a church that once housed a fanatical cult. It is said to be a doorway to the other side, a place where spirits linger, waiting to be heard.

A spirit named Orrin Riley reaches out, offering knowledge, power… and temptation. But his guidance comes with a price. He has his own buried secrets, a deeper darkness clawing to be set free. He wants Tabitha to submit to him, to help resurrect something ancient and unspeakable. And if she refuses? He will take what he wants—one way or another.

As reality begins to unravel, Tabitha must decide: Will she harness her true power, or become something far worse?

Church of Shadows is a chilling gothic horror tale of obsession, power, and the razor-thin line between salvation and damnation. Perfect for fans of Shirley Jackson, Caitlín R. Kiernan, and Silvia Moreno-Garcia, this haunting novel will stay with you long after the final page.
