About this listen
A man lunges in front of a car. An elderly woman silently drowns herself. A corpse sits up in its coffin and speaks. On this reservation, not all is what it seems, in this new spine-chilling mythological horror from the author of Sisters of the Lost Nation.
All Noemi Broussard wanted was a fresh start. With a new boyfriend who actually treats her right and a plan to move from the reservation she grew up on—just like her beloved Uncle Louie before her—things are finally looking up for Noemi. Until the news of her boyfriend’s apparent suicide brings her world crumbling down.
But the facts about Roddy’s death just don’t add up, and Noemi isn’t the only one who suspects that something menacing might be lurking within their tribal lands.
After over a decade away, Uncle Louie has returned to the reservation, bringing with him a past full of secrets, horror, and what might be the key to determining Roddy’s true cause of death. Together, Noemi and Louie set out to find answers...but as they get closer to the truth, Noemi begins to wonder whether it might be best for some secrets to remain buried.

Marshall is still trying to put the pieces together after the death of her husband. After she is involved in a terrible accident, her editor sends her to the small, backwards town of Raeford to investigate a clearly ridiculous rumor: that a horse has given birth to a healthy, human baby boy. When Marshall arrives in Raeford, she finds an insular town that is kinder to the horses they are famous for breeding than to their own people. But when two horribly mangled bodies are discovered in a field—one a horse, one a human—she realizes that there might be a real story here.

Across Italy there are many half-empty towns, nearly abandoned by those who migrate to the coast or to cities. The beautiful, crumbling hilltop town of Becchina is among them, but its mayor has taken drastic measures to rebuild―selling abandoned homes to anyone in the world for a single Euro, as long as the buyer promises to live there for at least five years. It’s a no-brainer for American couple Tommy and Kate Puglisi. Both work remotely, and Becchina is the home of Tommy’s grandparents, his closest living relatives.

Critic reviews
"Nick Medina blends myth and reality, supernatural danger and ordinary human menace into a story that will pull your heartstrings even as it shreds your nerves. Like the alligators lurking in its pages, Indian Burial Ground will swallow you whole."—Ana Reyes, New York Times bestselling author of The House in the Pines
"You may arrive at Indian Burial Ground because of author Nick Medina's incredible debut, Sisters of the Lost Nation, or his exceptional story in the bestselling Never Whistle at Night anthology, or perhaps he's a new-to-you author, and now you have the pleasure of reading both of these, but the important thing is you have arrived at an exceptional new novel that lingers long after the last page is turned. From two compelling points of view decades apart, Medina has crafted a story of generational trauma and mythical fears, with deep roots in Native history and modern life, that's part supernatural horror, part mystery, but perhaps most importantly, a story of hope in the darkness."—Vanessa Lillie, USA Today bestselling author of Blood Sisters
"Indian Burial Ground is wonderfully creepy and relentlessly dark. Part adventure narrative, part supernatural horror story, and part eerie mystery, this novel slithers under your skin and makes you wish you knew less with every step it brings you closer to the truth. Nick Medina is waiting in the dark to whisper in your ear about dead things, about the tamahka, about blood and Native mythology. You should let him."—Gabino Iglesias, author of The Devil Takes You Home

On the surface, Alice is exactly where she thinks she should be: She’s just given birth to a beautiful baby girl, Dawn; her charming husband, Steve—a white academic whose area of study is conveniently her own Mohawk culture—is nothing but supportive; and they’ve moved into a new home in a posh Toronto neighborhood. But Alice could not feel like more of an impostor. She isn’t connecting with her daughter, a struggle made even more difficult by the recent loss of her own mother, and every waking moment is spent hiding her despair from Steve and their ever-watchful neighbors.

Story
Many Indigenous people believe that one should never whistle at night. This belief takes many forms: for instance, Native Hawaiians believe it summons the Hukai’po, the spirits of ancient warriors, and Native Mexicans say it calls Lechuza, a witch that can transform into an owl. But what all these legends hold in common is the certainty that whistling at night can cause evil spirits to appear—and even follow you home. These shiver-inducing tales introduce listeners to ghosts, curses, hauntings, monstrous creatures, complex family legacies, desperate deeds, and chilling acts of revenge.

Story
Nicholas, a would-be poet, and Nakota, his feral lover, discover a strange hole in the storage room floor down the hall - "Black. Pure black and the sense of pulsation, especially when you look at it too closely, the sense of something not living but alive." It begins with curiosity, a joke - the Funhole down the hall. But then the experiments begin. "Wouldn't it be wild to go down there?" says Nakota. Nicholas says "We're not." But they're not in control, not from the first moment, as those experiments lead to obsession, violence, and a very final transformation.

Full of Universal Truths
A beautiful book that, in some ways, is a story about becoming, growing up and loss. There is alcoholism and suicide.
A lot of sadness. I just lost my husband 9 months ago, so I may be seeing through different lenses.
I loved this book.
It seemed real. It seemed like life.

Wasn't for me
It was okay but it definitely wasn't horror, and it was slow. I kept waiting for something to happen and then it was over lol. I was expecting more pet cemetery I guess. It left alot unexplained I won't read this again unfortunately, but it wasn't horrible just don't do into it thinking it's horror.

Great Story; uneven narration
Great story, and although I enjoyed the voices of both narrators, the male narrator’s difficulties with delivery made listening difficult. Will definitely read more by this author.

This was a slog
While I felt the voices of the narrators fit the characters, this was a slow moving book, that never picked up speed. I would not characterize this book as horror. This is about cultural and generational trauma and the tolls it takes on individuals. While there are mystical elements, they are secondary.

Best book I’ve read this year
I’m not sure I can adequately describe what I loved about this book, but I will try.
First, the HORROR. I realized while reading this that I hadn’t read horror in a hot minute. I physically responded - changing my sitting position the moment the horror climaxed. At the end of one particular chapter, I yelled audibly at the book. Yelling with love, not anger. Haha
Secondly, the CHARACTERS. Nick Medina always does a brilliant job with creating characters that feel so real. It’s so easy to picture them, feel with them, and journey with them. Louie has easily become one of my all time favorite characters. I wanted desperately to hop into the story, and make sure he was taken care of!
Thirdly (and lastly), much like Sisters of the Lost Nation, this book paints a vivid picture of the realities facing Native American communities. I think what impressed me so much was how it was done in the most flawless storytelling fashion. You meet the characters, you love them, you journey with them, face hardships with them, and only afterwards do you remember there was a lesson there.
I read this book twice, back to back, because I didn’t want to leave it yet. How a horror novel felt cozy is beyond my understanding, but it definitely did. I’ll be thinking about it for awhile.

Great story, bad narration
The story is *chef’s kiss*! But the male narrator makes it difficult to understand and follow. Would recommend reading over listening.

Good story - creepy & interesting
This author is great at creating characters that seem genuine & likable. They’re always flawed but honest about it so it works & doesn’t come off as angsty. Would have loved even more with the supernatural elements, such as the deaths out of nowhere (while they creepily smile & step out of life). Disturbing but I liked all of it. Recommend - not really horror specific maybe horror adjacent.

Narration made it a slog
I liked the story, but the male narrator made this very hard to listen to. If I wasn’t listening to this for bookclub on essentially a deadline, I would have tried reading the book on Kindle an actual physical book. I think if I could’ve narrated it in my own mind, it would’ve been better.
