Hungry Ghosts is cooked up by the best selling author and veteran chef, Anthony Bourdain (Kitchen Confidential, Emmy-Award winning TV star of Parts Unknown) and acclaimed novelist Joel Rose (Kill, Kill, Faster, Faster) back again from their New York Times #1 best seller, Get Jiro!. Featuring real recipes cooked up by Bourdain himself, this horror anthology is sure to please--and scare! On a dark, haunted night, a Russian Oligarch dares a circle of international chefs to play the samurai game of 100 Candles--where each storyteller tells a terrifying tale of ghosts, demons and unspeakable beings--and prays to survive the challenge. Inspired by the Japanese Edo period game of Hyakumonogatari Kaidankai, Hungry Ghosts reimagines the classic stories of yokai, yorei, and obake, all tainted with the common thread of food. Including stellar artists Sebastian Cabrol, Vanesa Del Rey, Francesco Francavilla, Irene Koh, Leo Manco, Alberto Ponticelli, Paul Pope, and Mateus Santolouco as well as amazing color by Jose Villarrubia, a drop-dead cover by Paul Pope.

She'll eat you up. A hungry ghost escapes from a dark realm into the human world, where it enters the unconscious body of a woman named Sam. When Sam appears to miraculously awaken from her accident-induced coma, her lesbian lover, alcoholic ex-husband, and well-meaning family must come together to try and stop the ghost from devouring everything Sam once loved. Meanwhile, elsewhere in Boston, a mysterious new kitten has just been born who holds the key to understanding what has happened to Sam. Will Sam's loved ones be able to put things back in their proper place, or will the ghost destroy them first?

Inspector Ricardo Ramirez investigates a string of dead prostitutes from Cuba to Canada in this cleverly plotted mystery from award-winning author Peggy Blair. Havana is under a full moon. Inspector Ricardo Ramirez knows murders always multiply when there's a full moon, and this time is no exception. As he investigates a vandal in the art world, a ghost appears by his side ... a sure sign that another murder victim is on the way. Ramirez's fears are confirmed when a dead prostitute is found in Havana with nylons wrapped tightly around her neck, a technique that mirrors his only cold case. Meanwhile, another woman's body is discovered in a similar condition on a First Nation reserve in Northern Ontario, and Detective Charlie Pike must determine whether the murder is a stand-alone crime or if the Highway Strangler has struck again. Before long, both detectives find themselves chasing a killer whose reach extends further than they could have imagined. Gritty and chilling, Hungry Ghosts follows Inspector Ramirez as he struggles to piece together the clues and track down an international serial killer before his own government silences him.
