Eminence Front

"To be savored on the coldest of days, Rowland's Eminence Front is a well-balanced blend of psychology, quiet cosmic dread, and a blood-red smattering of splatterpunk." —Cemetery Dance "Rowland delivers a slow burn suffocating descent into dread, paranoia creeps on to every page, making the familiar feel increasingly more uncanny and like you've fallen head first into a nightmare." —Scream Magazine "The turns are shocking and well-crafted, and the imagery is graphic and striking. Horror fans will find plenty to haunt them." —Publishers Weekly "Interstitial chapters tell of tragedy and unexplainable horror wrought for decades and provide foreshadowing that inspires dread of what is to come... Expertly crafted vignettes." —Library Journal "One of my go-to authors when it comes to unusual and deeply affecting horror fiction. Eminence Front is sure to be a standout book in 2026." —The Lineup "Eminence Front is my first foray into Rowland's longer work, and hot damn, it won't be the last." —Horror DNA “Rowland gets under your skin, down to the frigid bone marrow with this creepy-as-hell winter horror. Everyone has secrets, and this book amps up the isolation, dread, and paranoia to remind us how vulnerable we really are. It’s a chiller!” —Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of The Night Birds and Road of Bones “Eminence Front is a frightful tale of winter horror guaranteed to send icy shivers of fear creeping up your spine. Rebecca Rowland has crafted a disturbing story, filled with engaging characters, that will leave you chilled to the bone and begging for more.” —Owl Goingback, Bram Stoker Award-winning author “Dark and turbulent, twisting horror at its finest; Eminence Front latches onto the reader, slowly, inexorably, filling one with fright and with admiration of author Rebecca Rowland’s skill for crafting wicked tales.” —Eric J. Guignard, multiple award-winning author, including That Which Grows Wild and Doorways to the Deadeye "Tightly and meticulously plotted, Eminence Front blends the polyphonic character-focused horror of King with a genuinely chilling cosmic-horror presence. Rowland's writing is an absolute joy to read, and I highly recommend this deceptively short novel for anyone looking for a shivery page-turner in the winter months." —Ally Wilkes, Bram Stoker Award-finalist of All The White Spaces “In Rebecca Rowland’s Eminence Front, bad weather makes people do even worse things, or so it seems. A haunting, claustrophobic glimpse into the apparently idyllic lives of some very damaged folks during an epic New England blizzard, where a single whisper can be enough to shatter their lives.” —John Palisano, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Requiem and Ghost Heart “With the precision of an ice-cold scalpel, Rowland carves out a blood-soaked, snow-covered diorama of a suburbia from hell. Eminence Front offers a fascinating new lore that will entangle Rowland’s flawed characters in ways the reader won’t see coming, all the while whispering haunted melodies of white-hot madness.” —Philip Fracassi, author of Boys in the Valley and The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre “Wicked, lusty, blood-soaked, and tense, Rebecca Rowland’s Eminence Front is the claustrophobic tale of a blizzard that does something terrible to a neighborhood…and the people who do far worse to each other. A brisk, unsettling shocker!” —Jonathan Janz, author of Veil and Marla "Rebecca Rowland has created a cursed cold-front of a novel, equal parts enigmatic and unnerving, that seeps right into the reader's circulatory system. Eminence Front causes hypothermia, trust me. By the time you realize you've lost your senses, it'll be too late: You'll already have succumbed to Rowland's chilling tale." —Clay McLeod Chapman, Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of Kill Your Darling and Wake Up and Open Your Eyes "Eminence Front exposes the dark secrets of a northeastern town during a blizzard. Rowland expertly ratchets up the tension and dread with a well-drawn cast of characters as we discover the grim truth that these are the kinds of horrors that refuse to stay buried." —Paul Tremblay, author of Horror Movie and A Head Full of Ghosts "Rebecca Rowland really knows how to gradually torque up the creepy as evidenced by her new novel, Eminence Front. A few flakes, a few words, and before long, the characters—and the reader—are engulfed in a blizzard of terror. Unique imagination and engaging prose make this story, once begun, hard to put down." —Jeffrey Ford, author of A Natural History of Hell and Ahab’s Return "There is nothing scarier than a silent evil, and Rebecca Rowland captures that perfectly in Eminence Front. She takes the mundane and makes it a total nightmare. Great story." —V. Castro, Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of Maria the Wanted "In Rebecca Rowland's Eminence Front, the residents of a New England neighborhood find themselves under assault by a malevolent force wrapped in a fierce winter storm. Rowland combines incisive character portraits with steadily escalating strangeness, simultaneously evoking the best of eighties-era blockbuster horror and the deep weirdness of its nineties-era successors. These characters inhabit lives filled with compromise and regret, with frustration and lust, until what is in the storm comes for them and reality bends and fractures. Tightly constructed, the novel accelerates toward a remarkable ending that only deepens its mystery." —John Langan, author of Lost in the Dark and Other Excursions

The Devil's Done Come Back

"This book has everything: the sudden haunting chill in the air, the garrulous severed head, and those campfire-scary-as-all-get-out twist endings that only ghost stories can get away with these days."—Daniel Wallace, Beneath the Moon and Long Dead Stars and Big Fish
