It’s heeeeeere!

The audio edition of The Ceiling Man, read by Amy Melissa Bentley and Kristin James and published by Tantor Media, is now available from Audible, Google Play, iTunes, Amazon, and the other usual places. If your local library participates in Hoopla, you can borrow it there  for free.

Publishers Weekly had this to say about the ebook/print version: “A supernatural creature arrives in the small, fictional town of Port Massasauga and sets his sights on Abby, a girl with psychic powers similar to his own, in Lillie’s gripping debut…Lillie sidesteps horror clichés and presents characters who don’t make eye-rolling decisions…horror fans should expect an entertaining novel that’s tough to put down.”

Happy listening!

(And if you prefer using your eyes rather than your ears, the Kindle and print editions are still available.)

Don’t trust me? Here’s what others are saying about V.M. Burns and The Plot Is Murder:

Monday, January 24th saw the release of my first novel.

I’m a little excited.

The Ceiling Man by Patricia Lillie
From the back cover:
A NOVEL OF SLOW BURN HORROR.
Carole knows there can be no tie between her autistic daughter and the strange events in Port Massasauga. It’s not logical. It’s not possible.
The Ceiling Man has picked up other watchers in his travels, but they all dismissed him as a nightmare. The girl is different. She knows he’s real.
Teenage Abby is an innocent. The stranger only she sees and hears introduces her to evil. When Carole falls under the stranger’s sway, Abby must solve the puzzle of The Ceiling Man and save them both.
