Marika Kelly had a beaut of a day and that's just the start. A bus hit her and she wakes up a year later. Her librarian job is gone and her body doesn't work well. And now she sees ghosts. Secrets surround her and threaten her life. Secrets like the scream of the Banshee accompanied by the image of a man with evil eyes who hurts women; like the reason the police want to interview her; like her fear that she is going crazy; and Tetka, a ghost only she sees and talks to. Only Marika hears the Banshee, and fears others will declare her mental and lock her away. She feels that the man she sees when the Banshee screams knows about her and plans to end her existence. Her doctor places her in the care of his brother, a man who keeps a distance between himself and the rest of the world. The police want to know about the accident that she doesn't remember. Marika's own secret -- Tetka -- interrupts her attempts to recover. Tetka is the ghost of the brothers' aunt, who haunts him and who wants Marika to speak for her. She does not know why she hears the Banshee. She fears that the secrets that the brothers and Tetka have will determine if she lives, dies, or spends the rest of her life labeled as "mental" and confined in a hospital. The Banshee Screamed begins a series of books in which Marika faces ghosts and other creatures while seeking the answers to the secrets in her life and the lives around her.

When Benton dreams, people die... Every time Benton sleeps, he becomes a trapped passenger within a murderer's skin; able to hear, see, and feel every part of their kill. When he wakes up, he knows it's only a matter of time before his dreams become reality. No matter how hard he tries to stop the murders, it always ends the same way - with death. After ten years of constantly relocating, his parents have decided to settle in Fort Wayward. A quiet Albertan town where Benton could focus on graduating high school and living an idyllic teenage life. That is, until he finds a dead body in his backyard. Benton's hopes for normalcy come crashing down as something new begins stalking his dreams. Something that's not human. And, for the first time, he's not the only one watching. As his dreams and reality collide, Benton finds himself facing a monster beyond his understanding. In his fight for survival, Benton soon discovers why death follows him, why monsters draw close, and why he always wakes up screaming.

Before his mysterious disappearance and probable death in 1971, Oscar Zeta Acosta was famous as a Robin Hood Chicano lawyer and notorious as the real-life model for Hunter S. Thompson's "Dr. Gonzo," a fat, pugnacious attorney with a gargantuan appetite for food, drugs, and life on the edge. Written with uninhibited candor and manic energy, this book is Acosta's own account of coming of age as a Chicano in the psychedelic sixties, of taking on impossible cases while breaking all tile rules of courtroom conduct, and of scrambling headlong in search of a personal and cultural identity. It is a landmark of contemporary Hispanic-American literature, at once ribald, surreal, and unmistakably authentic.
