    »Modig, intelligent og virkelig isnende med et forrygende twist, der leverer et eksplosivt sidste stød.«– Sunday MirrorEngland, 1996. Teenageren Tom Jeffries forsvinder i marskområdet ved Scarclaw Fell, hvor han er på hyttetur med kammeraterne. Først et år senere dukker Toms lig op gemt i marsken. Politiet stempler det som en ulykke, men ikke alle er overbevist.Tyve år senere åbnes sagen igen. Scott King, internet-kultfigur og vært for en populær podcast om uopklarede mysterier, sætter sig for at undersøge, hvad der virkelig skete med Tom. I sin podcast-serie interviewer han seks forskellige mennesker, der var til stede den skæbnesvangre aften ved Scarclaw Fell. I seks episoder kommer seks personer til orde med seks forskellige syn på Tom og på dagene op til hans død. De fleste af de talende var teenagere dengang, og deres minder om hændelsen sløres af fortidens intriger, rivalisering og jalousi – men for hvert interview afdækkes nye detaljer, og den uhyggelige sandhed tegner sig skarpere.Seks stemmer er et klassisk mordmysterie med en ny, skarp vinkel. Som fortællingen udfolder sig, tvinges du som læser til at gætte med og til at spørge dig selv, hvor meget man egentlig kan stole på sine minder – og på de mennesker man omgiver sig med.Matt Wesolowski begyndte sin forfatterkarriere med at skrive horrornoveller til diverse magasiner og antologier i Storbritannien og USA. Hans første roman, Seks stemmer, blev udgivet på engelsk i 2017 til stor ros fra anmelderne.

Online journalist, Scott King, whose Six Stories podcasts have become an internet sensation, investigates the accusations of sexual abuse and murder that were levelled at Crystal before he died.

He is an exceptional storyteller' Andrew Michael Hurley ‘Disturbing, compelling and atmospheric, it will terrify and enthral you in equal measure' M W Craven ‘Beautufully written, smart, compassionate – and scary as hell. Matt Wesolowski is one of the most exciting and original voices in crime fiction' Alex North ________________ In the wake of the 'Beast from the East' cold snap that ravaged the UK in 2018, a grisly discovery was made in a ruin on the Northumbrian coast. Twenty-four-year-old Vlogger, Elizabeth Barton, had been barricaded inside what locals refer to as 'The Vampire Tower', where she was later found frozen to death. Three young men, part of an alleged 'cult', were convicted of this terrible crime, which they described as a 'prank gone wrong'. However, in the small town of Ergarth, questions have been raised about the nature of Elizabeth Barton's death and whether the three convicted youths were even responsible. Elusive online journalist Scott King speaks to six witnesses – people who knew both the victim and the three killers – to peer beneath the surface of the case. He uncovers whispers of a shocking online craze that held the young of Ergarth in its thrall and drove them to escalate a series of pranks in the name of internet fame. He hears of an abattoir on the edge of town, which held more than simple slaughter behind its walls, the tragic and chilling legend of the ‘Ergarth Vampire… Both a compulsive, taut and terrifying thriller, and a bleak and distressing look at modern society's desperation for attention, Beast will unveil a darkness from which you may never return… ________________ ‘Endlessly inventive and with literary thrills a-plenty, Matt Wesolowski is boldly carving his own uniquely dark niche in fiction' Benjamin Myers ‘A gripping and incredibly powerful novel of our times – the Six Stories series just keeps getting better and better' Kevin Wignall ‘Creepy, exciting and very well written' Yrsa Sigurðardóttir ‘Such a fantastic, creepy read!'

Five stars are not enough' The Book Trail ‘The epitome of a page-turner' The Book Review Café ‘Excellently chilling, fantastically dark' The Reading Closet ‘A spectacular read' Emma's Bookish Corner
