Hotel Tsubaki

By Craig Gerard Ferguson

Kenji Arata manages a love hotel in a neon-soaked corner of Tokyo, still hollowed out fourteen months after his wife's death. Then Shion starts on the overnight desk - beautiful, unsettling, impossible to look away from - and for the first time since his wife died, Kenji feels alive again.
He tells himself the things he sees are tricks of bad light. A shine in her eyes that shouldn't be there. A way of moving that isn't quite human. He tells himself this even after the first body.
Hotel Tsubaki is a slow-burn horror novel about grief, complicity, and the stories we tell ourselves to keep the people we love - even when we already know, somewhere past denial, exactly what they are.
