“The dissection of the unexplained, I believe, is the scientist’s anchor. Like inclement weather, the inexplicable may take many forms, and what may begin as a spatter of rain is liable to become a typhoon in an instant. In climates such as these we must hold fast, with all the cool-headed dignity we can muster.

"Nevertheless, I am resolved to burn these pages.”

A bedridden camgirl possesses a divine gift; a Victorian warship is haunted by a ghost who knows too much; a miraculous drug is extracted from a captured satyr; a soldier would rather face monsters than her past.

From the author of Pseudotooth and The Others of Edenwell, sixteen unsettling tales of the sickly, the desperate, and the doomed.

What ails you?
