Nothing But Blackened Teeth
This is Cassandra Khaw's gorgeously creepy haunted house tale combining The Haunting of Hill House with The Ring, steeped in Japanese folklore and full of devastating twists.
A group of thrill-seeking friends in search of the perfect wedding venue plan to spend the night in a Heian-era mansion. Long abandoned, and unknown to them, this mansion rests on the bones of a bride, and its walls are packed with the remains of the girls sacrificed to keep her company.
Their night of food, drinks, and games quickly spirals into a nightmare, as the house welcomes its new guests. For lurking in the shadows is the ghost bride with a black smile and a hungry heart. And she gets lonely down there in the dirt.
Effortlessly taking the classic haunted house story and turning it on its head, Nothing but Blackened Teeth is a sharp and devastating exploration of grief, the parasitic nature of relationships, and the consequences of our actions.
Brutally delicious! Khaw is a master of teasing your senses, and then terrorising them! — N.K. Jemisin, New York Times bestselling author of The Fifth Season
Khaw's got a sterling premise, enduring lore, and the fresh talent to voice it. — Josh Malerman, New York Times bestselling author of Bird Box

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
