Smudged: Tales Across Time

By Nandita Chakraverti

A chilling past is coming home.

A man on a scooter rides with a shadow no one else can see. In a dimly lit room, a bonfire crackles with restless ghosts. A beagle finds its way home, guided by friends both real and long-departed, and in a library of forgotten whispers, a family's buried past is found in a faded ledger.

When a lifetime of unexplained terrors finally pushes a woman to seek answers, her journey into hypnotherapy unearths a truth more horrifying than she could have imagined. She was given away, a child sold into a life of privilege built on an act of chilling betrayal. Now, the people from her forgotten life are stepping from the shadows, and they have come to collect a debt.

From the quiet ache of a lost home to the unsettling echoes of a past life, this collection of short stories proves that the most terrifying secrets aren't in the shadows... they're in your own mind.
