Send The Dead: A Novella and Four Stories

She Can't Call the Police, so She Summons the Dead.

Marina January makes a living guiding tourists through the haunted ruins of St. John’s sugar plantations — undocumented, paid under the table, collecting tips to fund an immigration lawyer while staying one step ahead of ICE.When a famous director recruits her as a consultant for his new historical film, it feels like a lifeline — especially when the film’s magnetic star, Gabriel Nash, takes an interest in her. Nash is as dangerous as he is charming. His obsessions nearly destroy her, until she fights back, using her knowledge of Caribbean history, its lore, and the malevolence of the occult. Nash badly misjudges her instinct for survival.New York Times bestselling author Richard Dooling brings together the title novella and four eerie tales — first published in The New Yorker, Story, Smoke, and Esquire — in a collection spanning literary horror, Hollywood glamour, Caribbean history, and supernatural vengeance.
