by Robert McCammon

Overview

Three novels of creeping horror from the New York Times–bestselling author who “delivers terror with skillful ferocity” (Publishers Weekly).

This collection from the Bram Stoker and World Fantasy Award–winning author of the Matthew Corbett novels includes:

The Night Boat
A scuba diver discovers a sunken Nazi U-boat. He dislodges it by detonating an unexploded depth charge, but back on the surface, he hears a strange sound from within the hull. So he opens the long-closed hatch—and learns that some things are better left buried.

Baal
Born of a violent assault, a boy winds up in an orphanage. There he renames himself Baal and hones sinister powers that will one day be unleashed upon the world . . .

Bethany’s Sin
The Reid family is happy to move into the pleasantly quaint small town known as Bethany’s Sin—until they learn about the secretive cult that holds sway over the community . . .

One of the founders of the Horror Writers Association, Robert McCammon (b. 1952) is one of the country’s most accomplished authors of modern horror and historical fiction. Raised by his grandparents in Birmingham, Alabama, McCammon published his first novel, the Revelations-inspired Baal, when he was only twenty-six. His writings continued in a supernatural vein throughout the 1980s, producing such bestselling titles as Swan Song, The Wolf’s Hour, and Stinger.

He did not publish another novel until 2002’s Speaks the Nightbird. Since then he has followed “fixer” Matthew Corbett in two sequels, The Queen of Bedlam and Mister Slaughter. His newest novel is The Five. McCammon and his family continue to live in Birmingham.
