The Coffin Worms : A young woman's obsession with an enigmatic stranger draws her into a secretive community where something ancient lurks--and where death may be only the beginning. The Stuck-To : After his wife returns from a stay at a mental health facility, her husband grows increasingly concerned with the mysterious new woman she's met--a friendship that threatens to tear his family apart. The White Island : An Arctic expedition uncovers the remnants of a lost civilization and evidence of a primordial evil--a lethal combination that threatens to rob them of their very sanity. The Appraiser : A real estate agent specializing in properties scarred by tragedy is called to assess a rural house with a particularly gruesome history, only to discover that some places are better off left alone. Dark, unsettling, and impossible to forget, The Coffin Worms is Nick Cutter at his most imaginative and terrifying--a showcase of four extraordinary novellas from one of modern horror's most celebrated storytellers.
