Anathema

"I've been a fan of Kristopher Rufty since his first book, and though I've enjoyed all of his novels, ANATHEMA is his best and most spine-tingling tale yet. Reminiscent of the novels of Ruby Jean Jensen and imbued with a vintage eighties ghost story vibe, this book is eerie, surprising, and engrossing. It also made me feel like I did when I watched The Conjuring, which is extremely high praise, given how much I loved that film. Highly recommended!"—Jonathan Janz, author of Children of the DarkHunter Jensen always dreamed of a big family house in the country.
