Hello horror fans,
If you’re a fan of asylums, possession, ghosts, hauntings, twisted family dynamics and pure, distilled horror balled up into about 350 pages, you might consider adding THE REDEMPTION OF MORGAN BRIGHT to your tbr. Bonus points if you already know the story of Nellie Bly.
It comes out from Angry Robot Books, February 2024.
Quick synopsis:
What would guilt make you do?
Hadleigh Keene died on the road leading away from Hollyhock Asylum. The reasons are unknown. Her sister Morgan blames herself. A year later with the case still unsolved, Morgan creates a false identity, that of a troubled housewife named Charlotte Turner, and goes inside.
Morgan quickly discovers that Hollyhock is… not right. She is shaken by the hospital’s peculiar routines and is soon beset by strange episodes. All the while, the persona of Charlotte takes on a life of its own, becoming stronger with each passing day. As her identity begins unraveling, Morgan finds herself tracing Hadleigh’s footsteps and peering into the places they lead.
