The Cabin

Mysterious and darkly erotic, The Cabin is adorned with a primal sense of power and rich with imagination. Claire has purchased a remote forest cabin with the intention of turning it into a retreat. Her closest friend, Sandy, isn't enthralled by the idea and tries to keep her feet on the ground as Claire begins to have strange dreams about a figure of darkness that yearns for their union. Sandy thinks they're the result of Claire's recent break up, but Claire believes otherwise as desire begins to take hold. Written under the influence of the album Away with the Fairies by the ambient band Astralasia, this provocative tale is filled with the stirring presence of ancient forces. Though a stand-alone story, The Cabin is also the fifth and final in a series of short horror novels created to specific music. Called the Melodies of Madness Series, it also includes The Darkness Inside, Into the Depths, The Liquid Room and Spontaneous Combustion. Each is available in Kindle and paperback formats and all five are due to be published in an anthology entitled Melodies of Madness, which will be released on the 13th October.
