I Always Find You
by John Ajvide LindqvistTHE NEW SPINE-CHILLING HORROR FROM THE AUTHOR OF LET THE RIGHT ONE IN**'A compelling treatise on loneliness, alienation and the evil that lurks in every heart' Guardian Book of the Month**Moving into a dilapidated apartment block in Stockholm, a young man hopes to make his living as a magician. But this building contains strange secrets - and his neighbours seem, one by one, to succumb to the strange pull in the basement. Behind that door, they can be transported to ecstasy - and the price of entry is just a little blood. At first. I Always Find You is a horror story drawn from Lindqvist's own past. The trials of being young, alone and vulnerable slip through his masterful hands and transform, like magic, into a macabre tale of human connection and the evil we carry inside.

Author's Note: Ghosts feed on our worst fears.

Marcos is reluctant to live with Jorge, his partner, and four more of his college classmates, for fear of repeating the days and nights of nightmares and insomnia due to his gift. And he is not wrong. The boy regrets having accepted the proposal, because from minute one he is able to feel the dark secrets that the chosen apartment seems to hide. However, Marcos did not expect to find himself involved in living with people full of light, in a place where there are doors beyond the visible ones and through which spirits keep coming and going. But that is the least of their worries, because a greater shadow, loaded with darkness and evil, stalks and threatens them. What are you going to find? 1. Terror, suspense, tension and ghosts. 2. Fears, nightmares, traumas and the occult. 3. Chilling experiences. 4. LGBT, family, friendship and coexistence.
