DON’T TRUST ANYONE
Cat’s twin sister El has disappeared. But there’s one thing Cat is sure of: her sister isn’t dead. She would have felt it. She would have known.

To find her sister, Cat must return to their dark, crumbling childhood home and confront the horrors that wait there. Because it’s all coming back to Cat now: all the things she has buried, all the secrets she’s been running from.

A remote village. A deadly secret. An outsider who knows the truth.
Robert Reid moved his family to Scotland’s Outer Hebrides in the 1990s, driven by hope, craving safety and community, and hiding a terrible secret. But despite his best efforts to fit in, Robert is always seen as an outsider. And as the legendary and violent Hebridean storms rage around him, he begins to unravel, believing his fate on the remote island of Kilmeray cannot be escaped.
For her entire life, Maggie MacKay has sensed something was wrong with her. When Maggie was five years old, she announced that a man on Kilmeray—a place she’d never visited—had been murdered. Her unfounded claim drew media attention and turned the locals against each other, creating rifts that never mended.
Nearly twenty years later, Maggie is determined to find out what really happened, and what the islanders are hiding. But when she begins to receive ominous threats, Maggie is forced to consider how much she is willing to risk to discover the horrifying truth.
Unnerving, enthralling, and filled with gothic suspense, The Blackhouse is a spectacularly sinister tale readers won’t soon forget.
Ein vielschichtiger, bis ins kleinste Detail ausgefeilter psychologischer Spannungsroman über die Kraft der Fantasie und den Preis der Freiheit
In der Westeryk Road Nummer 36, am Rand von Edinburgh, steht ein imposantes Anwesen, mit vielen verwinkelten Gängen, mit dunkelroten Wänden und versteckten Zimmern. Dies war das Zuhause der Zwillingsschwestern Cat und El, die es liebevoll "Spiegelhaus" nannten. Hier gab es für die Mädchen einen besonderen Ort: Jede Nacht stiegen sie die Treppe hinab, öffneten die schwere Holztür und betraten einen geheimen Raum, in dem sie ihrer Fantasie freien Lauf lassen konnten.
20 Jahre später kehrt Cat in das Haus ihrer Kindheit zurück. Denn ihre Zwillingsschwester El ist verschwunden. Was Cat nicht weiß: Els Verschwinden ist kein Zufall, sondern Teil eines Plans, der enthüllen soll, was damals wirklich im Spiegelhaus geschah ...
Les souvenirs nous jouent parfois des tours
"Diablement intelligent" Stephen King
"Un conte troublant, un vrai labyrinthe" New York Times
"Carole Johnstone s'inscrit dans la lignée de Gillian Flynn et de Stephen King" Greer Hendricks
Cat est partie s'installer à Los Angeles, loin de sa ville natale d'Edimbourg, et de sa sœur jumelle, El, dont elle est sans nouvelles depuis de longues années. La première partie de sa vie semble effacée de sa mémoire. Mais le jour où elle apprend la disparition inquiétante de sa sœur, elle décide de rentrer en Ecosse.
La police locale l'attend en effet pour l'interroger. Peu après son arrivée, des messages apparaissent en divers endroits de la maison, tels des indices dans une chasse au trésor. Tous font référence à Mirrorland, le pays imaginaire que les deux sœurs s'étaient inventé dans leur enfance, à la fois terrain de jeu et refuge personnel.
Qui sème ces indices ? Qu'est-il véritablement arrivé à El ? Cat comprend alors qu'elle devra déverrouiller sa mémoire pour comprendre le présent.
A World Fantasy Award nominee, “this anthology . . . is a collection of some of the most talented horror and speculative fiction authors writing today” (BuzzFeed). It includes all-new stories by Laird Barron, Pat Cadigan, Brian Evenson, Jeffrey Ford, Caítlin R. Kiernan, Garth Nix, Michael Marshall Smith, Kaaron Warren, and other masters of all things spooky and suspenseful.
In tales that crisscross the boundaries of fear and imagination—from a haunted courtyard in New Orleans to a remote Arctic research station—swamp monsters, pool-cleaning robots, and cannibalistic spirits wreak chaos and terror across the pages. You’ll be invited to a prom where a psycho hides inside a sparkly dress or rented tux; on a trip aboard a train to a destination that teems with ghosts; and into the darkest recesses of a human mind, the most fertile ground for the blossoming of true evil.
“Datlow’s ‘experimental’ crowdfunded horror anthology is nicely unthemed. . . . This is an excellent anthology for horror fans, with a nice range of tones and styles and some intriguing new voices.” —Publishers Weekly
“[Fearful Symmetries] not only goes beyond expectations, it raises the bar high above into the horror heavens. . . . A melting pot of distinct voices and styles that leave you wanting more.” —Hellnotes
“One of the best horror anthologies I’ve ever read.” —Thirteen O’Clock

A group of mountain climbers, caught in the dark, fight to survive their descent; in the British countryside, hundreds of magpies ascend into the sky, higher and higher, until they seem to vanish into the heavens; a professor and his student track a zombie horde in order to research zombie behavior; an all-girl riding school has sinister secrets; a town rails in vain against a curse inflicted upon it by its founders.
For more than three decades, editor and anthologist Ellen Datlow, winner of multiple Hugo, Bram Stoker, and World Fantasy awards, has had her finger on the pulse of the horror genre, introducing readers to writers whose tales can unnerve, frighten, and terrify. This anniversary volume, which collects the best stories from the first ten years of her annual The Best Horror of the Year anthology series, includes fiction from award-winning and critically acclaimed authors Neil Gaiman, Livia Llewellyn, Laird Barron, Gemma Files, Stephen Graham Jones, and many more.
