Black Bed Sheet Books, March 2024

From veterinary assistant and exciting rising author, Laura Shell, comes Canine Collection, a fast-paced selection of four horror/paranormal stories featuring our beloved canines. In “My Sister’s Keeper,” a lonely woman worries that her vampire sister will turn on her new best friend, that just happens to be a dog. Will the vampire sister accept the canine as a pet or as a source of nourishment? In “The Shape of the Shift,” a shapeshifter is surprised to learn that the people around him aren’t what they appear to be, including the love of his life. In “Jinn or Jinx?,” the wishes granted by an ancient Jinn not only come with bizarre consequences but also reveal dark family secrets. In “Immortal Me,” a woman discovers she is immortal after surviving a brutal beating. While she tries to keep her newfound persona a secret, her attacker learns the truth and comes after her for a second time, but she has a few surprises for him.
