Publisher's summary

Winner Kindle Award for Best Horror/Suspense 2020

Adam, a young alcoholic, slowly descends into madness while dealing with the psychological scars of childhood trauma, which are reawakened when his son and wife die in a car accident that he feels he is responsible for. After a failed suicide attempt, and more group meetings that he can mention. Adam hears a rumor of a Haunted Island off the Coast of Maine, where “if someone wants it bad enough”, they could be reunited with a lost loved one. In his desperate attempt to connect with the ghost of his four-and-a half-year-old son, he decides to go there, to Dagger Island, desperate to apologize to, or be condemned by, his young son.

Adam is not sure what he deserves or even which of these he wants more. While staying in a crumbling old boarding house, he becomes involved with a beautiful and manipulative ghost who has spent 60 years tormenting the now elderly man who was her lover, and ultimately her murderer. The three of them create a “Menage-a-Guilt" as they all come to terms with what it is that ties them so emotionally to their memories and their very “existence”.

Beautiful, Frightening, and Silent is a poetic fever dream of grief, love, and the terrifying ways that obsession can change who we are.
