Manifest Recall

**A SUPERNATURAL CRIME THRILLER FROM THE AWARD-WINNING MASTER OF DARK FANTASY**

Following a psychotic break, Eli Carver finds himself on the run, behind the wheel of a car that’s not his own, and in the company of a terrified woman he doesn’t know. As layers of ugly truth are peeled back and dark secrets are revealed, the duo find themselves in a struggle for survival when they unravel a mystery that pits them against the most dangerous forces in their lives.

A contemporary southern gothic thriller with frightening supernatural overtones, Alan Baxter’s *Manifest Recall* explores the tragic life of a hitman who finds himself on the wrong side of his criminal syndicate. Baxter’s adrenaline-fueled approach to storytelling draws readers into Eli Carver’s downward spiral of psychosis and through the darkest realms of lost memories, human guilt and the insurmountable quest for personal redemption.

**Praise for Alan Baxter and *Manifest Recall* :**

“If you like crime/noir horror hybrids, check out Alan Baxter's *Manifest Recall*. It's a fast, gritty, mind-f *ck.”

**– Paul Tremblay, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of *A Head Full of Shosts***

“ *Manifest Recall* grabs you by the scruff of the neck from word one and doesn't let go. It's fast paced, bad people doing bad things to other bad people. I gobbled it down in two nights. You should, too. Highly recommended!” **– John F.D. Taff, Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of *The End in All Beginnings** *

“Alan Baxter’s fiction is dark, disturbing, hard-hitting and heart-breakingly honest. He reflects on worlds known and unknown with compassion, and demonstrates an almost second-sight into human behaviour.” **– Kaaron Warren, Shirley Jackson Award-winner and author of *The Grief Hole** *

“Alan Baxter is an accomplished storyteller who ably evokes magic and menace.” **– Laird Barron, author of *Swift to Chase** *

“Alan’s work is reminiscent of that of Clive Barker and Jim C. Hines, but with a unique flavour all of its own.” **– Angela Slatter, World Fantasy, British Fantasy and Aurealis Award winner**
