Lyla, in the Flesh

From Nick Roberts, award-winning author of The Exorcist's House trilogy, comes Lyla, In The Flesh, a new tale of psychological terror and suspense about a young woman invited to attend a prestigious writing program at a mysterious castle in Italy, only to realize the walls are hiding terrible secrets, perfect for fans of We Used to Live Here, Suspiria, Get Out, and The Haunting of Hill House.

After being rejected by her dream graduate schools, twenty-two-year-old Lyla Robbins receives an acceptance letter for a free ride to The Claymont Residency for Writers, an elite and mysterious program located in a modernized castle in the heart of Italy.

Lyla soon learns of the excessive rules regarding curfews, cell phones, and strict deadlines. While everyone else is focused on submitting work to the reclusive editor known only as The Reader, she sees shadowy figures in her room and notices eerie changes in her friends.

When philanthropic benefactors, Lester and Regina Sterling, arrive, Lyla investigates the connection between them and the darkness haunting the grounds. The further she digs, the more horrors she uncovers, leading to a shocking secret with sinister repercussions.
