About this listen
An ancient evil arises.
An ancient power awakens.
Nineteen-year-old Megan Howatt lives in a house on the edge of a crumbling sea cliff, waiting for her life to fall into the North Sea. Her mother is dead, and her father has lost his mind, obsessively hoarding the junk that he salvages from the shoreline. Her only friends are Lou, the eccentric owner of a beach-side cafe, and Kelpy, the large black dog that she rescued from the sea as a puppy. Desperate to escape, but unwilling to abandon her father, she scratches a living working at the Dry Dog Inn in the nearby village of Salwick.
A violent storm hits the village, and the killings begin. A flock of sheep is torn apart, and suspicious eyes turn towards Kelpy. The owner of a local antiques shop goes missing. Something prowls the village streets at night—something that smells of rot and endless hunger. Megan finds herself drawn to the story of Mad Annie, a local woman accused of witchcraft who died on the island of Nine Mothers. With Lou’s help, Megan must reckon with the occult powers awakening in her, face the ghosts of her childhood and save her home from a shape-shifting horror of the ancient world.

Story
For seven generations, a member of the Gates family has been digging the same hole, drawn to the task by a force none of them can explain. What waits at the bottom of that hole could end the world. Loretta is the latest in the Gates bloodline, and having no children, she will be the last. Rusty Clemmons is home for his twentieth high school reunion. He is rethinking life and trying not to dwell on the past. He notices changes in his hometown of Smithville... strange behaviors, the odd smell. Everything points back to the hole Loretta Gates is digging.

Story
Chicago, 1923. Jimmy Maloney, a dock labourer, is forced to join an organised crime syndicate to provide for his family. In the shadow of Prohibition, The Syndicate traffics a mysterious narcotic—deadlier and easier to smuggle than bootleg whiskey. As Jimmy climbs the ladder of organised crime and corrupt Chicago politics, he slowly uncovers a chilling truth: The Syndicate is run by an ancient evil and its criminal enterprise is a front for much worse.

The first Chinese actress to win an Oscar, the trailblazing ingénue rose to fame in the eighties, only to disappear from the spotlight at the height of her career to live out the rest of her life as a recluse. Now her remaining family members are gathered for the reading of her will, and her daughters expect to inherit their childhood home: Vivian’s grand, sprawling, Southern California garden estate.
