Benedict M: The Queens of Crime

The Queens of Crime

A Novel

Some holes can't be filled. Some evils can't be explained.
Mick Enderson walks among us, a man hiding in plain sight, chasing a feeling he can't name and a hunger he can't silence. Whispers of vanished lives shadow his every step, while a sinister presence lingers at the edge of his conscience, urging him deeper into the dark.
As bodies disappear and fear grows, a relentless detective and a conflicted priest find themselves drawn into a chilling cat-and-mouse pursuit, each step revealing uncomfortable truths about the nature of evil, and the thin line that separates salvation from damnation.
A psychological thriller soaked in dread and moral ambiguity, this is not a story about justice. It's a story about what we refuse to see, until it's far too late.

Serial Killer Explanation

THE BESTSELLING HORROR DEBUT* STEEPED IN PAGAN FOLKLORE AND A SAPPHIC ROMANCE SET IN A POST-APOCALYPTIC WORLD FULL OF HUNGRY ELDRITCH CREATURES . . . 'A beautifully told story of dystopian apocalypse' Daily Mail India-Rose Bower's debut offers a new take on horror, blending pagan folklore and sapphic romance - PinkNews We Call Them Witches is a fresh take on dystopian horror, brimming with eldritch creatures, love and desire, and examining how far we'll go to save our family from what hunts them. I love it. - Laura Elliott, author of Awakened -- Sara and her family must keep moving. Every few months, they're discovered, and they have to pack up and get out quick. For the twins it's all they've ever known, for Danny, Noah and Ma, it's a reminder of all they've lost. For Sara, it's just another day. In yet another abandoned house, one they surround with Pagan wards - the only thing that protects them - Sara and her family think they might be safe, for a while at least. And then they find a strange girl in the garden. Parsley can't remember where she came from or how she got here. The family sees only a threat, but Sara sees hope. But outside they are waiting. The eldritch creatures. The ones they call Witches. The ones who already stole everything. And now, just days after the Parsley arrives, they steal something even more valuable: Noah. It's time to stop running. It's time to leave the safety of the wards, and try to find Noah in the witches' lair. It's just that no-one has ever done that and come out alive... -- Readers are already loving We Call Them Witches! 'Absolutely thrilling and keeps you turning the page to find out what happens' Reader review 'Blending folklore, fear, and queer romance, this book is as heartfelt as it is haunting. A must-read for fans of eerie, character-driven horror' Reader review ' It is utterly addictive, such a perfect mix between fast paced action and tender reflection that I genuinely couldn't put it down' Reader review - *January 2026, Bookseller

On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance 03

'Audacious and instantly gripping . . . Whidbey is deeply satisfying' Catherine Chidgey, New York Times 'There is, to put it simply, no book quite like Whidbey' Vogue 'In the realm of Patricia Highsmith and Gone Girl' Chelsea Bieker 'A masterpiece' Carmen Maria Machado ---- You want to know who did it, but that was never the question. Or, it was never the right one. Birdie Chang doesn't know much about Whidbey Island, only that it is far. On the ferry, she has an unnerving encounter with a stranger, where she finds herself telling him everything: how she was sexually abused as a child, how the perpetrator now walks free, how the calls and emails from him haven't stopped and she is on the run; how she wants to kill him. The stranger poses a shocking question - if she agrees, he will murder the man who hurt her, with no strings attached. She gives him a name. On the other side of the country, Mary-Beth receives a phone call from the police: her only son has been murdered. What follows is a complex story of three women connected through one man: Birdie, a woman on the run from her past and her abuser; Mary-Beth, the abuser's loving mother; and Linzie, a former reality star turned bestselling memoirist, and another victim of the same man. Whidbey is a brilliant reimagining of the whodunnit - a searing, propulsive novel that asks who has real power over a story: the one who lives it, or the one who tells it? Women are rarely in receipt of what they are owed.

'In the realm of Patricia Highsmith and Gone Girl' (Chelsea Bieker)

The Karma Bus

The Joker's greatest tales from the 1970s are collected in one massive hardcover featuring appearances by Batman, Robin, Catwoman and many more! He has been the thorn in the side of the Caped Crusader for years, always there to confound Batman and his allies before their own genius and heroics halt whatever crazy scheme has hatched from his maniacal mind. As the swinging '60s moved into the troubled '70s, so, too, did the Joker shift into something new. The Bronze Age Joker was a step away from Cesar Romero's comical portrayal in the Batman TV series toward the diabolical maniac that would eventually plaque the Batman of the modern era. The Clown Prince of Crime had come into his own, both in his own comic book series and in his psyche, or lack thereof...

BEAST OF BLOOD 02

ONCE UPON A TIME LIKE YOU'VE NEVER READ IT BEFORE... DI Lyla Rondell is on the case of a lifetime. Tasked with investigating a series of perplexing deaths, the only lead she has is that each appears to be based on a different classic fairy tale. Far from the stuff of bedtime stories, the press is having a field day with what they have named the Grimm Ripper Murders. But as the bodies stack up, Lyla's whole world is about to flip on its head. Because the killer's bloody trail stretches deep into her own origin story, and when she discovers the truth, nothing will ever be the same again. Faced with the fact that everything she knows is fiction, Lyla will have to take a little creative license of her own if she's going to turn the final page on the killings... 'An exquisite puzzle of a crime thriller, it revels in the shadows, as reality is savagely entwined with the very roots of storytelling itself... Prepare to be spellbound because A. K. Benedict is a master of this darkest art' JANICE HALLETT 'A clever, clever, thoroughly meta, extraordinarily enjoyable modern fairy-tale with layer after layer of intrigue and a breathless pace, I loved it, especially the delicious happy ever after' ANDREA MARA 'Hugely inventive and mind-bendingly clever' CLAIRE McGOWAN &nbsp; 'A fairytale trickster of a book, witty, sly and wickedly clever; it gripped me from first page to last.&nbsp;This is the thriller you'd get if Angela Carter kidnapped Stephen King and made him write with toadstool ink' KIT WHITFIELD &nbsp; 'Some passages read like Agatha Christie, some like Angela Carter&nbsp;- but all of it is written with the smoothness and intelligence that is AK Benedict's signature style. With charm and chills often on the same page, this is a serpentine novel that refuses to give up its secrets until it's good and ready' CHARLOTTE BOND
