Three Spooky Stories

I'm the girl nobody knows until she commits suicide. Then suddenly everyone had a class with her. Tonight's the night. Everyone will be there. Will you?Graduation in Santa Barbara, a house near the beach, and no parents! That can mean only one thing: PARTY! But not everyone's in a partying mood. Beckett is only going to confirm she is invisible after having spent two years caring for her mother; Morrigan seeks revenge on her ex- for having the gall to NOT sleep with her; Azize is trying to make a friend -- any friend; and Anthony's ready to pop off on anyone who mentions his maimed, combat-veteran brother. As the night quickly spirals out of control, eleven unique characters -- all of whom are familiar to anyone who's been a high school student -- crash, collide, and recombine in ways none of them saw coming when a brutal act of xenophobic violence brings the party to a halt. Graduation is a time of change. But after tonight, no one will ever be the same.

Party

She's not what he thinks. He's not what she needs. In stunningly raw, relatable prose that upends the idea of the manic pixie dream girl trope, Tom Leveen does more than just talk: he tells the story of a less-than-perfect "dream girl" and the equally flawed boy who worships her. Tyler has been crushing on Becky since he started high school, but didn't get the guts to talk to her until long after he already found himself dating Sydney, a quintessential good girl whose patience for Tyler's unrequited love is thinning. After publishing a story about Becky in a prestigious magazine, Tyler decides tonight -- halfway through their senior year -- he's going to come clean to Becky, with whom he has become good friends. But "Open For Business Becca" has some not-so-secret secrets Tyler's been denying, and there's no way Tyler's dream girl can ever be what he needs her to be. Instead, he just might discover how far he's willing to go to break his own heart.

"In an exciting take on the zombie novel, Leveen shifts to horror while maintaining his trademark complex relationships and character-driven storytelling." ~ Publishers WeeklyBeneath the heat of the scorching Phoenix sun, a nightmare unfolds within the confines of a high school drama department as a group of misfit teens confronts a horror beyond imagination. When a viral plague sweeps through the city, turning its victims into bloodthirsty monsters, Brian's high school becomes a fortress and a prison. The imposing fence surrounding campus holds the infected at bay, but it also keeps Brian's sister, Mackenzie, and his ex-girlfriend trapped in different corners of the campus. Laura, Brian's ex, lives life shadowed by a crippling panic disorder. But the medication stashed in her backpack becomes a lifeline in a world gone mad -- if she can be reached. Time is running out as one of Brian's friends falls victim to the infection... As tensions rise, Brian's group of drama-kid survivors is forced to find Laura and Mackenzie, and escape the clutches of the infected before the darkness within their fellow survivors becomes more terrifying than the bloodthirsty hordes outside. Sick is a fast-paced tale of survival, loyalty, and the inescapable horrors of a world transformed. Join Brian and his band of misfits as they navigate the thin line between humanity and the monstrous, where salvation is uncertain, and survival comes at a chilling cost. Dive into the gripping horror of Sick now, but be warned: once you enter, there may be no way out.

Sick

The house remembers him. And wants his son. Braden's got a wonderful wife, darling three-year-old son, nominal success as a novelist - and no contact with his parents for years, with very good reason. Then a box of his books is accidentally-and mysteriously-delivered to his childhood home. Against his own best judgment, Braden swings by the old place with his son, Josiah, to pick up the box. In and out, super fast, no big deal. The house has other ideas. Infected by the traumas inflicted by his parents, the house traps Braden and Josiah with its lone, erstwhile occupant. It turns Braden's long buried memories into corporeal horrors threatening his fragile, still-recovering psyche and the childhood of his only son. Braden must quickly uncover what exactly the house wants from him--Or if it is, in fact, the house that's haunted.

As police race to find and stop the assailant, Jim discovers it's far too late: someone's lying in wait, and what he -- or they -- want is the last thing Jim could ever have expected .
