About the Book:
What happened to Rob Wilson at the Gresham Inn?
For over fifteen years, fans of the best-selling horror author have speculated, theorized, and obsessed over that question. Wilson’s debut novel, Ghost Inn, was inspired by something he experienced during his honeymoon at the historic Gresham Inn in Galveston. But whatever happened inside those walls, he has refused to speak of it since—not to interviewers, not to fans, not even to his soon-to-be-ex-wife. Was it a publicity stunt? A nervous breakdown? Or something worse?
Wilson can’t seem to let the inn go. From his waterfront home, he watches its distant cupola almost daily, as if waiting for it to call him back. Now, for the first time in years, he’s returning—albeit reluctantly. His most devoted readers are gathering for a long-awaited convention at the Gresham Inn, and Wilson has agreed to a brief appearance to sign books. But he knows what they really want. They’ll demand answers about that night, the night that made him famous.
Erica Clarke, an ambitious reporter, sees the convention as her shot at a real story, one that could catapult her beyond the world of tabloid journalism. Posing as a fan, she’s determined to get Wilson alone and make him talk. But she isn’t the only one with hidden motives.
Tom Fanning, the Gresham’s current owner, has spent years spinning ghost stories to lure in tourists, milking Wilson’s legend for all it’s worth. But some secrets at the inn refuse to stay buried. Strange things are still happening within its walls: whispers behind locked doors, guests who check in but never seem to check out, and the creeping sense that history is circling back on itself.
Outside, a tropical storm gathers strength in the Gulf of Mexico. Inside, something darker is brewing. And this time, Rob Wilson may not escape the Gresham Inn at all.
Praise and Reviews:
“Vincent’s creepy-meets-funny Ghost Inn is a witty sendup of celebrity culture and writerly misery.”
—Linwood Barclay, New York Times bestselling author of No Time for Goodbye
“Ghost Inn is a joy for horror fans: a well-written, clever suspense tale that's both a love letter to the genre and a wink at some of its conventions, figurative and literal. Bev Vincent knows his stuff!”
—Michael Koryta, New York Times bestselling author of Those Who Wish Me Dead
“Bev Vincent's Ghost Inn is everything I look for in a novel: it's inventive, scary, suspenseful and fun. It's also clever as hell, driven by a cast of characters I really cared about and should only be read during the day with all the lights on.”
—Richard Chizmar, New York Times bestselling author and co-author (with Stephen King) of Gwendy’s Button Box
