October Focus on Horror: Emmett Nahil Created by Bob Helmbrecht, collection development librarian Our Focus on Horror author today is author Emmett Nahil. Nahil's debut novel, "From the Belly," was released in May. From the publisher's description: "The whaling vessel Merciful has just made its strangest catch yet: a massive whale containing a still-living man secreted within its stomach lining. Sailor Isaiah Chase is tasked with keeping the enigmatic man alive." Author Laurel Hightower said of the novel: "A darkly sensuous dive into the chilling subgenre of aquatic horror. Beautifully empathetic and character driven, ‘From the Belly’ hits every disturbing note with finesse as Nahil ramps up the tension with pitch-perfect pacing. I loved this book from start to finish." Nahil has also written a graphic novel. Illustrated by George Williams, "Let Me Out" is set in NJ during the "Satanic Panic" of 1979. A pastor's wife is killed, and 4 friends are sucked into a conspiracy of secret government agencies and occult mysteries. Check out a book by Emmett Nahil today!
