NEW RELEASES
Blue Sunshine
By Ken Johnson
US: Trade | Mass Market | eBook
International: Trade | Mass Market | eBook
Working from Jeff Lieberman’s original draft for BLUE SUNSHINE, which was actually set in 1970s New York, Ken Johnson’s novel reflects the grittiness and social turmoil of the times.
It started off as a great party—just eight of them in a ski-lodge in upstate New York. But then the last guest, Frannie, arrived. There was something wrong with Frannie’s hair. And something very wrong with his eyes. And what he did to three of the girls was too hideous for description…
That was just the start. After that, things began to happen all over New York—ugly things: psychosis, insanity, murder—and no-one could find an explanation. The police were helpless—because they didn’t know that behind all the grisly happenings lay a single, uncontrollable horror. A horror called BLUE SUNSHINE…
BLUE SUNSHINE is the Edgar Lansbury/Joseph Beruh Production starring Alice Ghostley, Zalman King, Deborah Winters and Mark Goddard based on an original screenplay by Jeff Lieberman.
It Comes Back
By John Penney

From the screenwriter of Return of the Living Dead 3 and The Kindred, comes a new entry of terror!
Everyone feels guilty about something. Some people’s guilt is small, but others aren’t so lucky. Some people are forced to live every day knowing they let a person they loved die. Officer Bianca Vale is not one of the lucky ones.
After his wife is stabbed seven times in the back, Ray Cutter is arrested and detained at the Yucca Valley police station as the obvious suspect. Bianca, fresh off another failed date, takes on the night shift simply biding her time until the San Bernardino police pick up Ray and transport him to prison. However, what begins as a routine detention for Bianca and her colleagues quickly escalates as a sinister force manifests itself as each officer’s greatest regret and picks them off one by one.
Bianca is not the only person at the police station racked with guilt and when the officers are forced to come to terms with their own pasts, no one is safe. Especially when the police station loses all contact with the outside world. If Bianca hopes to make it through the night, the only key might be Ray himself.
"John Penney's latest masterful suspense novel is a spine-tingling delight from Page One, until its shattering conclusion! I've been a huge fan of Mr. Penney's brilliant work from the beginning, and he just gets better and better. This book gets under your skin and creeps into your soul! Brilliant insights into the psychology of guilt and terror make it an unforgettable page-turner! Do NOT miss this fantastic read!" - Stephen Carpenter (Creator of "Grimm" on NBC)
One more thing we’ll be announcing in a week or so, is a partnership with a favorite boutique Blu-ray label. We are copy editing and re-releasing some previous books that never had a wide release, and we are putting the finishing touches on a Bruno Mattei novelization for them. This is going to be an exciting partnership and means we’ll be stepping up our novelization output even more! More details very soon.
