The Malevolent is in Publishers Weekly Booklife Indie Spotlight for Scary Stories of 2025.

Author statement: "In 1983, Griffin Andrew Meade moves to Bartholomew Bay, settling into Antioch, the ancestral mansion of the wealthy Bartholomew family. Unbeknownst to him, he soon discovers it is haunted by a restless spirit. I have been fascinated with gothic horror since I was young but was dismayed that there was sparse LGBTQ+ representation in the genre, so I have committed that all my speculative fiction novels have LGBTQ+ protagonists and themes."
