Sobre aquest llibre
Most of them are ordinary. Mail key. Dentist. Don't forget the stove. But some are written in a hand she doesn't recognize as her own, pressed so hard into the paper it nearly tears through. DON'T OPEN THE BLUE DOOR. IF YOU HEAR JUNE, DON'T ANSWER.
She doesn't have a sister named June. She never has. Ask anyone.
When Mara walks into the woods behind her house one night and comes back three days later with cut feet and no memory of where she's been, her daughter Nell and granddaughter Ivy move in to look after her, and find a house that no longer quite matches its own measurements. A hallway four feet longer than it was yesterday. A door where the floor plan says there shouldn't be one. A photograph of two girls, taken sixty-five years ago, with a name written on the back that no birth record has ever confirmed.
The deeper Ivy digs, the clearer it gets: this house doesn't haunt the people inside it. It listens to them. It waits, patiently, to be remembered out loud, by someone who loved whoever it already took, and then it takes them too.
Three generations of women in this family have tried to outlast a house that only wants to be loved enough to keep. Some of them left notes behind. Some left initials scratched into a wall nobody was ever supposed to find.
Ivy is the last one standing between her family and something very old and very patient. Saving what's left of her grandmother may mean doing the one thing every woman in this house has been warned, for sixty-five years, never to do again.
Say her name.
HUSK is a slow-burn haunted house novel about memory, inheritance, and how dangerous it can be to love someone enough to never let them go, for readers who like their horror quiet, their dread domestic, and their endings left open in exactly the way that follows you out of the room.

Sobre l'autor
Wind Amiras writes because he can't quite stop. Over the past several years he's put out more than 30 books — ebooks and paperbacks both — spanning quiet, ache-in-your-chest fiction, sharp nonfiction guides, and horror that leans hard into the dark. He works in both English and Indonesian, and moving between the two languages seems to sharpen his instinct for what actually lands, no matter who's reading.
His horror has built a real following, especially Skin Suite and He Wears the Dead. Readers who know him from that side of his work are sometimes thrown by how tender the rest of it is. That's more or less the point — he's never been interested in staying in one lane.
His books are out on Amazon KDP, Google Play Books, Draft2Digital, and most of the usual places people buy ebooks now. Between projects, he writes essays on Medium and LinkedIn — looser, less polished, closer to how he actually thinks.
