In Evil at Heart, Detective Archie Sheridan and serial killer Gretchen Lowell return in a follow-up to the New York Times bestsellers Heartsick and Sweetheart. Gretchen is still on the loose and Archie is still hospitalized after his ploy to catch her goes spectacularly wrong. Former Bellinghamster, Chelsea Cain, is also the author of Dharma Girl, The Hippie Handbook, Confessions of a Teen Sleuth, and Does This Cape Make Me Look Fat? (Pop Psychology for Superheroes). She edited the anthology Wild Child: Girlhoods in the Counterculture, was a columnist for The Portland Mercury, and has published work in British Elle, The New York Times Book Review, and Ms. Magazine.
Poet Chad Helder is the Stoker Award-winning co-editor of Unspeakable Horror: From the Shadows of the Closet, an anthology of queer horror fiction. Helder is also the creator and writer of Bartholomew of the Scissors, the innovative horror comic book that features the creepy "comic-books-in-wood" illustrations of artist Daniel Crosier. He wrote a series of horror comic book one-shots for Vincent Price Presents, and his first book of poetry was the Pop-Up Book of Death. Chad is also former VB staffer, and we’re excited to welcome him back to Bellingham.
