Publisher's summary
The decrepit well has been a fountain of terror for generations, an abyss of dread that emits tragedy and death like fog. Its darkness touched Jacob’s soul some twenty years ago, and since moving back to his ancestral home, the chilling feeling of being in front of the old well hasn’t left his troubled mind.
But this time, the shadows that creep from the well have taken on a malevolent sentience, whirling a storm of terror as it wreaks havoc on the house. His innocent niece Melissa is ensnared in its vortex, leaving Jacob with no choice but to delve into it once again.
He is thrust into a nightmare he thought he had escaped. Can he muster the strength to confront the maddening horrors that lurk beyond his shattered memories? Or will the ancient evil lurking in the depths of the well swallow him whole?
Fans of bone-chilling horror, spine-tingling tales, and hair-raising scares will love this novel from acclaimed indie horror author Samuel Small as he drags you through the twisted woods and into the terrifying darkness in the well.

From the internationally best-selling author of the Sword of Truth series comes a new Richard and Kahlan novella. "They are the monsters under the bed when you are little, the shape just caught out of the corner of your eye when you thought you were alone, the shadow of something in a dark corner that surprises you and then isn't there. They stop you dead with a knot of unexpected terror in the pit of your stomach. I think that the star shift has brought us closer to their realm so that they now have the power to step into our world and hurt us."

Story
Alma Katsu calls My Heart Is a Chainsaw “a homage to slasher films that also manages to defy and transcend genre.” On the surface is a story of murder in small-town America. But beneath is its beating heart: a biting critique of American colonialism, Indigenous displacement, and gentrification, and a heartbreaking portrait of a broken young girl who uses horror movies to cope with the horror of her own life.
